The only law office that seems to have a staff (presumably eventually including lawyers) is the starbase JAG office in Measure of a Man. All other instances where legal representation in Starfleet is required on a starship a senior officer acts as counsel. | |

| Aug 28, 2021 at 23:37 | comment | added | Xantec | This doesn't answer the core question, but I always assumed the staff in Ten Forward as well as Mister Mott were civilians performing a function on the ship, not servicemen filling Starfleet positions. | |
