UNDERSTANDING THE MILITARY SYSTEM OF JUSTICE

Your JAG Attorney can defend cases in military court . In effect, the UCMJ is a complete and comprehensive set of criminal laws that apply to active-duty, National Guard, Reserve, and military academy members of all branches of the United States Armed Forces.

Notably, the UCMJ punishes most offenses that are criminalized under civilian law, including matters like drunk driving, drug possession and distribution, larceny, fraud, assault & battery, sexual assault, and homicide. This is so because the UCMJ also punishes a wide range of other conduct (misconduct) that is deemed to adversely impact the good order and discipline in the military.

The Judge Advocate General's Corps (JAG) are attorneys who are responsible for practicing military law. A JAG lawyer can defend cases in military courts, including things like proceedings before military administrative separation boards and courts- martial. However, those facing these types of proceedings are entitled to hire private counsel of their own choice. Your JAG Attorney has the military and civilian practice experience you need to be properly represented.

AN OVERVIEW OF LEGAL SERVICES
WE PROVIDE TO MILITARY MEMBERS

We will put in the time, resources, and attention to the small details to handle your case the right way. Your rights, your career, your future, and your freedom matter. Legal services offered by Your JAG Attorney include:

MILITARY ADMINISTRATIVE SEPARATION BOARDS:

A commanding officer can involuntarily separate a military member from the armed forces on several different grounds—from poor performance to substance abuse problems to allegations of a pattern of misconduct. Generally, these matters will go before a military administrative separation board. A person facing separation from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, or Coast Guard has a right to know the factual allegations against them and to respond to the matter. Most importantly, they also have the right to be represented by a Military Law attorney during their hearing. Your JAG Attorney will help you navigate these serious proceedings. If you have any questions about military administrative separation boards, Your JAG Attorney is standing by, ready to help.

COURT MARTIAL DEFENSE:

Were you charged with a crime or other violation under military law? You could face a court martial. Your JAG Attorney is an experienced military law attorney. We are qualified to defend military members who have been court-martialed for a wide range of different reasons, including drunk driving, drug possession, drug distribution, fraud, larceny, assault & battery, and sexual assault. If you or your loved one is facing court-martial for a criminal allegation, Your JAG Attorney has the skills and experience to protect your rights.
