Words cannot fully express my immense gratitude for Mr. Jordan and the truly extraordinary work he did on my behalf. Over the course of more than a year and a half, he guided me through one of the most challenging experiences of my life with unmatched professionalism, expertise, and compassion. Facing an Article 120 charge under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) was overwhelming, but Mr. Jordan stood by me every step of the way, ultimately securing a full acquittal. From the very beginning, it was evident that Mr. Jordan possessed an exceptional understanding of both the law and the complexities of my case. His meticulous attention to detail and deep knowledge of the UCMJ were unparalleled. He left no stone unturned in his preparation, examining every piece of evidence and crafting a compelling defense strategy tailored to the specifics of my situation. Throughout the 18-month ordeal, Mr. Jordan demonstrated an unwavering commitment to my case. His ability to communicate legal concepts in a clear and straightforward manner ensured I always felt informed and empowered. He not only fought tirelessly in the courtroom but also provided constant support and reassurance during what was an incredibly stressful and uncertain time. His dedication, compassion, and belief in my innocence made all the difference. Mr. Jordan worked tirelessly to ensure that justice was served, and thanks to his extraordinary efforts, I was fully acquitted of all charges. The weight lifted off my shoulders after hearing the verdict was indescribable, and it was all because of Mr. Jordan and his unwavering commitment to achieving the best possible outcome. I cannot recommend Mr. Jordan highly enough. His expertise in handling UCMJ cases, particularly Article 120 charges, is second to none. He is a true credit to his profession and a beacon of hope for anyone facing the daunting challenges of the military justice system. I will forever be grateful to have had him in my corner, fighting for me and my future.

Our son, an E3 stationed at Fort Liberty, North Carolina, was falsely accused of an Article 120, sexual assault, in a worst-case scenario; charges were brought early in 2024, shortly after the military’s new process of prosecution began, coupled with a huge shuffle in his chain-of-command that created a lack of interest/understanding in the case by his leadership. Without the expertise and guidance of Jordan’s team, our son would have fallen through the cracks and been separated from the Army. Because of the no-bull, aggressive and thorough approach from Jordan and his team, no charges were pressed and our son was retained and is completing his military career in honorable standing. Our family highly recommends Jordan UCMJ Law and feel the results would have been far less favorable without him.

As a military service member with almost 18 yrs. I was accused of a serious UCMJ military offense. This tigger a separation board, I than retain Attorney Joseph Jordan and the Military Trail Defense. Through their unwavering hard work and dedication to my case, I was found not guilty by a three board panel and was retained to continue my service in the Army. I am also tremendously grateful for his team. Mrs Patti and Tasha who was always was a phone call away during the process. I highly suggest hiring Attorney Jordan who is knowledgeable and experienced in the military justice field. Thank God and Attorney Jordan for restoring my Military life!

He helped me get my case dismissed and was very strong with communicating with me from start to finish during my case. He is very patient and knowledgeable lawyer, my uncle referred him to me and I am glad I hired him to defend my rights. I will 100% encourage others who need any sort of legal advice and support to hire Mr. Robert Buford as their lawyer.

Doug and his partner Ken represented myself and a co-defendant in what can only be called a gross miscarriage of justice. After showing the government the light, prosecutors doubled down due to ignorance, incompetence and politics - and Doug and Ken kicked their efforts into high gear. The result? Acquitted of every trumped up charge the state could come up with. Intelligent. Savvy. Diligent.

PAY ATTENTION!!!!! I reached out to King because he had good reviews. He literally was the first & only lawyer I reached out to (also the 1st one that popped up..lol) thank GOD! We payed him a consult Fee due to how far he had to travel but ended up not needing to hire him because the case was dismissed. What I will say is that he was very easy to communicate with and always responded to my txt and calls. Although he did not represent us I trust and believe that he would have been the BEST choice.

Mr. King is a stellar attorney!! I consulted Jeff when I was made to show cause for false official statement and fraternization and was immediately impressed by him. He came highly recommended by a friend who also trusted and was let down by the system, but Jeff proved she was NOT guilty at a Court Martial. Jeff is very methodical, professional, thorough, very well spoken and has a presence that is unmatched. He owned the room at my Board of Inquiry with his calm, yet powerful demeanor and I saw how impressed the Board was by him from the start. His military legal experience has WELL prepared him to defend military members. I am a Mustang Naval Officer with a 23 year career that has been nothing less than honorable and I had been wronged by a system I have trusted my entire career. My only regret was that I did not hire Jeff prior to my NJP. I am confident if I had I never would had to face a show cause proceeding. If you are also being treated as guilty until proven guilty as I was, DO NOT hesitate! Jeff will tirelessly work to make them hear you! Jeff King is well worth your investment and he WILL protect the career you have put blood, sweat, and tears into! My Board unanimaously overturned the false official statement and voted to retain. I am extremely happy with the results and now have the closure I needed. I can now honorably retire!

Non fake review. I also have paperwork I can load with pictures that I was a client if this were to get denied. I should have placed this review long time ago. They dropped the ball on my case I paid a lot of money for them to only lose the evidence on court day. They simply said there’s nothing we can do. In his video he explains how he likes to get people and court while there defenses are low. That is an accurate description of how they act when they can’t/ couldn’t win against the court. they take the same approach to their customers after that. If they’re willing to fix this problem without additional cost to myself I’d be glad to change the review.

I was referred to this law firm by Godsey/Martin (Ijustgothit.com). They didn’t want to do what was necessary to take my case to trial if need be. This man; Mr. Presutti gave me is direct cell number, told me that he promises to never get more than his client, and that I can call anytime. Everything he said came true. There is on other person I would trust more than Mr. Presutti to handle any litigation for me. He took care of me on all fronts. If I called, he answered; if he didn’t answer, he called me right back. I mean he does things unexpected of attorneys.

I was facing a Board of Inquiry for violations of UCMJ articles 89, 123, and 133. My 27 years of Marine Corps service and my retirement and veteran benefits were all at risk. Mr. Vokey immediately planned my whole defense and do all the work and I got sit back and watch him go to work. He brilliantly dismantled the government’s case with expert detail and pointed every mistake they made. I got the best verdict possible for BOI which is all allegations unsubstantiated. Thank you Mr. Vokey you saved my career, sanity, and my family. I can’t describe in words how great he was.

I was falsely accused of egregious professional misconduct under the Army’s SHARP program. Due to the notoriety of SHARP in the current command climate of the Armed Forces, that false allegation resulted in me facing not only an other-than-honorable involuntary termination of my military service but also irreparable and irrevocable harm to my professional career. The opprobrium of being labeled a “predator” presumed guilty of false sexual misconduct and the subsequent isolation stemming from the Army’s stance of ‘guilt by accusation’ in matters pertaining to SHARP showed my family and me a new level of hellish fear as we felt the weight of the Department of Defense smothering our integrity, honor, and livelihood. I was referred to Colby Vokey by a trusted friend, and that referral changed our lives. Mr. Vokey told my story; the truthful story. He provided encouragement and support and continuously stoked the will to fight back against the injustice of a system designed to protect victims but that was being weaponized against me. Thanks to Mr. Vokey, I was exonerated of all charges, including an overturn of the “founded” SHARP allegations and subsequent administrative actions, and I was vindicated. If you are reading this, searching for the best military attorney for your case, stop here. You’ve found him.

I was misidentified as a physician who lost a state license from another state. Since I was reported as the revoked licensed physician, I was questioned by my state board and had trouble finding employment due to the National Practitioner Databank report. I tried to correct this problem myself and got nowhere. A friend suggested Antonio Cobos, JD and things started moving real fast. Within a month of his letter to the reporting agencies, I received a corrected NPDB report with sincere apologies for their mistake. Dr. Cobos and Samantha are fantastic and I owe them for getting my future back.

After receiving a letter from the Texas Medical Board I talked to four attorneys on the phone and without a doubt felt the most comfortable working with Tony Cobos . He was very frank about what he could do for us and did not give us any false expectations as to costs or outcomes. He kept me informed throughout the process and ensured I was prepared to face the informal hearing. I found Mr Cobos very knowledgeable, honest and extremely supportive. I have no doubt that he is strong force in the area of matters related to medical license. I have been very pleased and impressed by the results he gets and tons of accusations from my fired angry employee were dropped. I would highly recommend Tony Cobos to any physician who has a case with TMB.

Call is picked up by somebody that is making sure I know that he doesn’t want to be answering the phone (weird they would apply for such a position) and I state that I have a military related legal matter. The guy on the phone instantly responds by telling me that they don’t do military law. Contrary to the Google search, all the reviews, the entire website, and all of their social media presence… they apparently DO NOT DO MILITARY LAW. Mind you, I was never asked to explain my case or what sort of outcome I was looking to reach. Just begrudgingly answered the phone and told me, with no knowledge of my intentions, that they don’t do the only thing they advertise. Fantastic. Updating to address his response. They can’t take my case that I have never described to them because they want to play around with the semantics of my choice of words. My (a person with no law background) words that I used when reaching out for assistance with… law. They recommended small claims court on the phone but small claims court caps at $7,000 rather than a half million. Anyways. This guy really said “21 a day? Let’s pump those numbers.”

I had a multi-disciplinary legal matter last year. Although the allegations were without merit I was afraid of the potential consequences for myself and my family. Mr. Parra met with me and was able to calm some of those fears. He immediately went to work on my case and Within days he was getting results. My legal problems were completely resolved in a much shorter time than I expected with the best possible outcome and the price was reasonable. I’ve recommended several clients to Mr. Parra who have received the same care and treatment with similar results. The Parra Law Firm is now the only Law firm I recommend for San Antonio and surrounding areas.

I had the pleasure of working with Jack Wilson as my criminal defense attorney, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with his services. Jack is extremely professional and responsive, always providing direct and clear communication, which is crucial in stressful situations like this. Whenever I had a question, he responded within minutes, demonstrating his commitment and dedication. Jack went above and beyond, taking additional time securing a great deal for me when it wasn’t required. He has your best interest in mind 100% of the time even if it means more work for him. Jack took a huge weight off my shoulders and made the entire process much easier to digest. I am forever thankful for Jack Wilson and would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of these kinds of services. Thank you, Jack.

My very close friend made the mistake of a third DWI. He faced felony charges and deportation back to his birth country (he was born in Vietnam, but raised here since he was a toddler). Due to the immense stress of this pending trial, he even suffered physically/medically. Jack was very compassionate and even took the time to meet my friend/client, his brother, and even me in his office. He answered all of my texts and calls very quickly throughout the entire process. He even answered a frantic weekend call from me (when he was probably with his family). Jack made miracles happen and was able to receive a misdemeanor plea deal within a very short time (less than 5 months). I highly recommend Jack Wilson!!! Thank you, Jack! We are grateful.

What a Government Lawyer Can Do for You

A government lawyer specializes in legal issues related to government policies, regulations, and disputes involving public entities. Whether you are a private individual, business, or government agency, a government lawyer provides expert guidance on navigating the complexities of government law. These attorneys handle cases ranging from constitutional law, administrative law, regulatory compliance, and government contracts to defending or challenging government actions.

Government lawyers help individuals and organizations understand their rights and obligations under the law, represent them in disputes with government agencies, and assist in matters of government contracting, procurement, or public policy.

When Should I Hire a Government Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a government lawyer in several situations involving government regulations, compliance, or disputes. Common reasons to hire a government lawyer include:

  • Government contracts and procurement: If you are bidding for or negotiating a contract with a government agency, a lawyer can help ensure compliance with federal, state, or local contracting rules.
  • Regulatory compliance: Businesses operating in highly regulated industries (e.g., healthcare, finance, environmental sectors) often need legal guidance to comply with government regulations and avoid penalties.
  • Government investigations: If you're being investigated by a government agency such as the IRS, SEC, or EPA, a government lawyer can help defend you against allegations or negotiate settlements.
  • Challenging government actions: If a government agency has denied a permit, license, or benefit, a lawyer can help you appeal or challenge the decision in court.
  • Constitutional and civil rights issues: If you believe your constitutional rights have been violated by a government entity, such as in cases involving free speech or discrimination, a government lawyer can help you seek justice.
  • Public policy or lobbying efforts: If you are involved in lobbying or advocating for policy changes at the local, state, or federal level, a government lawyer can provide legal advice on compliance with lobbying laws and strategies for effective advocacy.

Hiring a government lawyer early in the process can help you navigate complex legal frameworks and avoid costly mistakes when dealing with government-related legal issues.

What Does a Government Lawyer Do?

A government lawyer provides a wide range of services that cover interactions between individuals, businesses, and government entities. They can:

  • Assist with government contracts: Helping clients navigate procurement laws, drafting contracts, and resolving disputes related to government contracting.
  • Provide regulatory compliance advice: Offering guidance on meeting regulatory requirements for industries subject to federal, state, or local laws.
  • Handle administrative law matters: Representing clients before government agencies, such as appealing administrative decisions, applying for permits, or defending against regulatory enforcement actions.
  • Challenge or defend government actions: Representing clients in lawsuits involving government agencies, including constitutional challenges, civil rights violations, or disputes over government decisions.
  • Negotiate settlements with government entities: If a government agency is pursuing legal action against you or your business, a lawyer can negotiate settlements to avoid costly litigation.
  • Advocate for policy changes: Advising clients on legal strategies for influencing public policy, including lobbying and drafting legislation.
  • Litigate constitutional issues: Handling cases related to the Constitution, such as First Amendment rights, due process violations, or unlawful government actions.

How Are Government Lawyers Paid?

Government lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the nature of the legal work involved. Common payment structures include:

  • Hourly rate: For ongoing legal matters, such as regulatory compliance or government contract disputes, lawyers may charge by the hour. Hourly rates can vary depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
  • Flat fee: For specific services, such as drafting a government contract or filing an administrative appeal, some lawyers charge a flat fee.
  • Retainer: For clients who need ongoing legal support, such as businesses frequently interacting with government agencies, a lawyer may charge a retainer fee. This is an upfront payment that covers future legal services.
  • Contingency fee: In some cases involving litigation, such as civil rights violations, a lawyer may work on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case.

It’s important to discuss fee structures with your lawyer during the initial consultation to avoid surprises.

How Much Does a Government Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a government lawyer depends on the complexity of the legal issue, the lawyer's experience, and their fee structure. Here are some general cost estimates:

  • Hourly rates: Government lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
  • Flat fees: For specific legal services, such as drafting a government contract, flat fees can range from $1,000 to $5,000, depending on the nature of the service.
  • Retainer fees: A retainer for ongoing legal work with government agencies can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, depending on the scope and frequency of the work.
  • Contingency fees: In cases where a lawyer works on contingency, their fee is usually a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or damages awarded if the case is successful.

Be sure to get a clear estimate of costs during your consultation to ensure that you understand the fees associated with your case.

Top Questions to Ask a Government Lawyer

When hiring a government lawyer, it’s essential to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and skills needed for your specific situation. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What is your experience with government law cases?
    Make sure the lawyer has substantial experience in handling cases or issues involving government agencies, regulatory compliance, or constitutional law.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for their services - whether by the hour, flat fee, retainer, or contingency fee - and request an estimate of costs.
  3. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your legal options and the likelihood of success based on your specific situation.
  4. How do you handle interactions with government agencies?
    Ask about their approach to dealing with government entities and their experience with specific agencies relevant to your case (e.g., IRS, EPA, SEC).
  5. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Ask about their experience with similar cases and whether they have achieved favorable outcomes in the past.
  6. Who will handle my case?
    Clarify whether the lawyer you are meeting with will personally handle your case or whether junior attorneys or paralegals will do most of the work.

How to Check the Credibility of a Government Lawyer

To ensure you’re hiring a reputable government lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:

  • Check state bar association records: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Review their professional experience: Look for specific experience in government-related legal issues, such as regulatory compliance, government contracts, or administrative law, on their website or professional profile.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Check online reviews and ratings on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to get insight into the lawyer’s reputation and track record.
  • Ask for references: Request references from previous clients who have worked with the lawyer on government-related matters to understand their experience and effectiveness.
  • Check for membership in relevant organizations: Look for memberships in professional organizations such as the American Bar Association's Administrative Law Section or the National Institute of Government Procurement, which can indicate the lawyer’s focus on government law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first meeting with a government lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant information and documents. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Detailed description of your legal issue: Be prepared to explain your situation, whether it’s a regulatory compliance question, a government contract issue, or a dispute with a government agency.
  • Relevant documents: Bring any paperwork related to your case, such as contracts, permits, letters from government agencies, or notices of investigation.
  • A list of questions: Write down any questions you have about your case, including the legal process, potential outcomes, and costs.
  • Timeline of events: Provide a clear timeline of any relevant events, such as the issuance of government orders or interactions with government agencies.
  • Goals for the outcome: Be ready to discuss what you hope to achieve, whether it’s a favorable settlement, regulatory compliance, or overturning a government decision.

By being organized and prepared, you can help your lawyer understand your situation more quickly and give you the best legal advice moving forward.
