March 18, 2008 By admin

Working in a legal office or a JAG Navy office is a rewarding and interesting administrative job. A Navy Legal specialist or legalman works with Commissioned JAG officers, and other legal staff working in issues of law and legal affairs. A legalman keeps track of records, works to file and monitor official publications, and deals with office protocol and managing office functions. A Navy Legal Specialist works with reports and official correspondence, and work independently often with little or no supervision. They may be called upon to assist anyone in the Navy, from a seaman recruit to an Admiral, and they use their training and skills to help countless numbers of sailors in the fleet.

Some of the required duties of a Navy Legal man may include:
