Ft. Stewart military criminal lawyers

Military criminal charges can be one of the most daunting of all legal challenges. That’s why we took our vast combined 50 years of legal experience and decided to dedicate our lives to protecting the military personnel that protect us. Defending military personnel against criminal charges is what we do and there’s one big reason why we do it: Justice matters. For those hardworking men and women who keep our country safe and free, we owe a debt of gratitude. Our way to express that gratitude is to use our knowledge of military criminal law to defend our clients from unfair charges.

The Uniform Code of Military Justice spells out the rules and regulations that the men and women of the United States military must live by. This code of conduct differs distinctly from civilian law, so it’s not enough to hire a civilian lawyer to fend off charges in the military. You’ll be tried in a judicial court called a court martial for any offenses that are brought against you in the military.

Why You Need a Military Criminal Lawyer

The military is very strict about its chain of command and conduct of its members. There is a stricter point of view about military conduct because it is a matter of life and death for so many of the people in the military. Insubordination doesn’t just lead to a few hurt feelings or walking off the job. It can mean the end of lives when one person in the military takes it upon themselves to break with the chain of command. Because of this, these charges are viewed much more seriously than civilian matters and breaking laws in the military can have dire consequences.

You need an experienced military criminal lawyer because:

• Facing a court martial is a life altering event in your life. It can result in losing your freedom.
• Civilian lawyers often aren’t well versed in the laws maintained by the military.
• A court martial is going to view things differently than a civilian court. You need experienced lawyers who know how to work with judges in the military.
• A military criminal lawyer will fight for you, on your behalf, so that you can continue to live your life in peace while awaiting a court martial.
• You’ll experience the best possible outcome for your case when you call on our lawyers. We can often get charges dismissed altogether, reduced, or obtain lighter sentencing, even when it’s the worst case scenario for you.

All of these reasons are great reasons to call upon our lawyer. We are passionate about defending military personnel against charges that can affect their life and career forever, just like we know that military personnel have been passionate about defending our own freedoms and lives. It’s important to us to get out there and learn the facts of your case so that we can properly defend you during your ordeal.
