Financial Liability in Property Loss (FLIPL)
So you lost some TA-50 or other military equipment? It happens. If an investigation is opened into that lost equipment you could be found financially liable and responsible for the cost. Use our experience to make sure that you aren’t charged for something that wasn’t lost on account of you. Even if it was your fault, we can ensure the investigation is done properly and in accordance with the regulations.
Letter of Reprimand (LOR)
A letter of reprimand can have serious consequences on your career progression. Let us walk you through the procedural steps in responding to your LOR. We will attempt to get you the best outcome available based on the facts of your case.
General Officer Memorandum of Reprimand (GOMOR)
A letter of reprimand (LOR) from a flag officer has ended many a career. There are regulations in place to ensure that you have an opportunity to respond to whatever is being asserted. Don’t be pressured into accepting an unfair outcome. Let us fight for you!
Article 15, UCMJ
Whether a Company grade or Field grade, an Article 15 proceeding can have significant repercussions on your military career. Should you decide to not accept that proceeding, you may be subject to court-martial. Ensure that you have a crystal clear understanding of your options at the earliest opportunity.
