Mr. Cave helped me with an IG complaint, which could have impacted my active duty career. He provided legal advice and assisted me with the interview questions. Mr. Cave was extremely patient (we worked on the questions for hours), flexible, responsive, meticulous and thorough. The outcome of the investigation was positive (not substantiated). I am thankful for his service.

Last year, I came under suspicion of a couple of changes that would end my career and end any of my chances of getting hired as a civil servant. That was something I never thought was going to happen during my military career. I was devastated and didn't know what to do; that's when I reach out to Mr. Cave. He was one of the best-recommended defense lawyers in the National Captial Region. Mr. Philip Cave had helped me get through with the investigation and complete drop of suspicion and charges. I can tell you that he possesses extensive experience on any charges involving security clearance, and he will always give you frank assessments based on his experience. In addition, he also worked with Mr. Nathen Greenburg, who has experience with Army litigations. His team continuously updated me on my expectations and provided sound legal advice on the subject matter. Thus, I was able to protect myself throughout the process. Mr. Cave and Mr. Nathen Greenburg reassured me that I always had a team of experts support me. If you are under suspicion or charged for any security-related matter, you must call Mr. Cave. Mr. Cave and his team will do their best to get you through your difficult time.

As a military male, we know that Article 120's are not infallible. That often in the military they are persuaded by political influence and sometimes are made up. I found myself in a similar situation. Phillip came in on the attack and immediately started attacking the prosecution's handling of the investigation, and applied for the proper appeals. I went to court and was given a not guilty verdict. I would like to say truth persevered. However, unfortunately, we live in a world where the truth is subjective, especially in the military. Even with the truth on your side, you will need a lawyer like Phillip to attack your case and give you the justice you deserve.

Mr. Cave and his staff gave timely advice, rolled up their sleeves, and offered my case the professional attention that only an attorney of his experience and tenure, would have been able to provide. Mr. Cave et al, diligently investigated, revealed the truth, and helped me to the best possible solution (dismissal).

Mr. Cave and his associate Mr. Kornacki were/are extremely helpful and knowledgable on UCMJ procedures. They bring an additional vantage point of legal to legal coordination/negotiation that military JAG TDS attorneys do not normally process. The legal team was very responsive despite a 4 hour time change and I would recommend them to anyone in a similar circumstance.

5 years back Mr. Cave defended me in a process that should never had occurred. A blown out of proportion lie almost ruined my career and Mr. Cave discovered all the lies and wrong doings of my case against me and now I finished another unknown process - a Grade Determination Review Board - something I was NOT expecting - only after you are gearing up for retirement you find this out. But trust NOBODY - Mr. Cave's law firm is there to represent you well and defend you at all times. Mr. Cave and Mr. Kornacki WILL defend you to the fullest at all times. And they won both of my cases. They also restored my honor, my reputation and livelihood and I can now look to retire honorably and live my life with honor and I keep everything I have earned! I don't have to look over my shoulder because I have Mr. Cave's Law Firm to back me up! Don't gamble your future with ANY administrative process against your in the Army. Don't face the process without Mr. Cave's legal support - it could prove catastrophic! Mr. Cave may GOD bless you and Mr. Kornacki always - you two are superb attorneys!

Many years after retiring from the USN, I suddenly found myself in a very unwelcome legal matter with the Navy. It was a total shock and I was very concerned as to the impact this would have on me and my family. Philip was so helpful, truly a calming force, and his legal help was invaluable to me, I am so thankful that I availed myself of his services!

Let me begin by saying that if you find yourself being read a charge sheet for a 120 offense, you are in for a wild ride. The worst thing you can do is hold onto the hope that the process is fair and that the truth will prevail, because it's not and it won't. I can honestly say that hiring Mr. Cave saved my life. I firmly believe that the Army puts every resource they have into destroying your life, regardless of the merit of validity of your charges. If you have ever done anything wrong during your time in the military, they will come after you for it. You NEED an experienced CIVILIAN Attorney that knows how to navigate the system without fear of jeopardizing their own chances at promotion. In the courtroom, Mr. Cave has an incredibly calm demeanor that might lead you to think that he won't attack the prosecution when the time is right, i assure you that this is not the case. I sat and watched him dissect the governments whole case and cross examine witnesses like a surgeon. It was actually impressive to watch. All this being said, Mr Cave shoots straight, tells you exactly where he thinks you stand, and is brutally honest about the system and process. I am able to be with my family because i chose to hire Phil Cave. I assure you that if you find yourself in a legal battle with the Military, this is the man you want in your corner. I assure you that hiring Phil will be the best investment you ever make.

In 2014 during a nasty divorce, my ex-wife accused me of molesting my step-children I was convicted at court-martial and sentenced to 36 months separating me from my new wife and child. Mr. Cave and his team got my conviction overturned in the Army Court of Criminal Appeals and got me over $100,000 in back pay I now have my nursing license back and I am about to start work. Thanks, Phill you saved more than just my life you saved us all!

Mr. Cave is an expert at his craft and took the time to defend me in a situation that had all of the cards stacked against me. My ex wife became angry that I left the home and accused me of rape and assault. Mr. Cave exposed her lies and fortunately I was acquitted. The one thing I appreciate the most about Mr. Cave is that he was honest and did not sell me any dreams about my situation. I was fully prepared for the worst case scenario because he was honest about how these kinds of cases work out. I am also a single parent, which made this even more of a heart breaking situation. My daughter and I owe are lives to Mr. Cave. P.S.- If you are on Ft. Bragg and need representation, find Mr. Cave and also find CPT Vivek Shah. They literally saved my life. Thank you Sir!

Mr Cave was very professional. He kept me updated on all aspects of the case during preparation and during the hearing. He prepared me for the hearing and giving testimony so that I was not nervous. I found his fees to be reasonable.
