We’ve focused our educational years and our careers on learning the criminal and military law systems down to the smallest detail in an effort to help our clients combat the penalties stemming from a wide range of charges.

While we are focused on providing the aggressive guidance you need, we also work to offer the quality client service you deserve. Throughout your proceedings, you will be offered timely updates on the progress of your case, the changing defense options available to you and the steps still left to take in your defense. We also work to remain accessible whenever you need us; after all, when you have questions or concerns, you shouldn’t have to wait for answers or advice.

Military Representation vs. Civilian Representation

As a service member charged with a crime, you are entitled to representation by a military lawyer at no cost to yourself. However, military lawyers face the same struggles you do in your service; pressures of command, heavy workloads and budget constraints weigh heavily on their shoulders. These pressures can limit the effectiveness a military lawyer can have in your case, in turn potentially impacting the success of your defense.

Our office operates under no such constraints; we are able to bring the full resources of our firm to bear on your specific case without the distractions military lawyers face. The focused attention we offer can be the difference between a career ending conviction and a resolution that limits the harm done to your future.

What We Do

Our knowledge of various criminal charges, combined with our insight into the military justice system and the Uniform Code of Military Justice, allow us to offer the detailed guidance you need to combat even the most serious charges.

From the moment you hire us, we will begin investigating your charges and the events leading to your arrest. We will gather evidence, interview witnesses and examine the actions of authorities during their investigation. Any information we uncover will be used to plan a defense strategy that offers the best possible chance of success in your case.

Our defense of the case begins with a careful examination of the facts, how the UCMJ applies to these facts, and an analysis of your constitutional rights and your rights under the UCMJ.  Our military law attorneys do not presume our clients to be guilty and prepare from the beginning to represent our clients through the Article 32 and court-martial process with an eye toward a dismissal of the charges or an acquittal at trial.

If it appears that a trial is not in your best interest and you authorize us to do so, we will attempt to negotiate a reduction of your charges or an acceptable plea that limits the harm done to your freedom, your career, and your future. If an acceptable plea cannot be had, we will take your case to trial to ensure that your side of the story is heard by those sitting in judgment of your case.  Within the military system, there are sometimes advantages of going to trial, even if an acquittal is not your goal.
