Although legal aid is not funded separately, it has been provided to members of the armed forces since 1943 and is now seen as one of the benefits of military service. Legal Aid establishes a solicitor-client relationship between the client and the Air Force lawyer and consists of Air Force lawyers who advise eligible beneficiaries in personal civil matters. For all other legal matters, the Air Force remains the client of the Air Force Attorney. In these other cases, Air Force lawyers cannot advise individuals or entities or enter into an attorney-client relationship with them. Air Force attorneys acting in an official capacity may not enter into an attorney-client relationship in the following areas: The Judge Advocate of the 633rd Air Base Wing provides legal advice and assistance to the commander of the 633 ABW and more than 40 unit commanders and staff agencies in the areas of military justice, adverse administrative measures and ethics, civil, operational, environmental, labour and contract law.
