                       Our File No.: 74877-00-101

Dear Sirs:

               You have  requested  us, as general  counsel to American  Skandia
Life Assurance  Corporation ("Skandia Life") and American Skandia Life Assurance
Corporation  Variable Account B (Class 3 Sub-Account),  to furnish you with this
opinion  in  connection  with the  filing by  American  Skandia  Life  Assurance
Corporation  Variable  Account B (Class 3  Sub-Account)  of a Rule 24f-2  Notice
pursuant  to the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940  for the  fiscal  year  ended
December 31, 1995.

               We have made such examination of the statutes,  authorities,  and
records of American Skandia Life Assurance Corporation Variable Account B (Class
3  Sub-Account)  and other  documents as in our judgment are necessary to form a
basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed.

               In our  examination,  we  have  assumed  the  genuineness  of all
signatures on, and authenticity of, and the conformity to original  documents of
all copies  submitted  to us. As to various  questions  of fact  material to our
opinion,  we have relied  upon  statements  and  certificates  of  officers  and
representatives  of Skandia Life,  American  Skandia Life Assurance  Corporation
Variable Account B (Class 3 Sub-Account) and others.

               Based  upon  the  foregoing,  we  are  of the  opinion  that  the
securities,  the registration of which said notice makes definite,  were legally
issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.

               We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Rule 24f-2 Notice filed pursuant to the provisions of the Investment Company Act
of 1940.


                               Very truly yours,
