Has anyone here had any trouble getting legal services as a retiree? I ask because my wife and I will need to make changes to our trust and will also need powers-of-attorney in the future. We live near WPAFB.
In my experience, you are pretty much limited to Wills and Power of Attorney.

The level of "help" varies by how many JAGs are on staff, and how busy they are.

My experience in getting help with a fairly plain-vanilla Will left a lot to be desired. Anything other than a cookie-cutter (ie, adding one or two specific items), and they are bewildered how to proceed.

They told me "You need to see an Attorney."
