Our son, a Navy serviceman, made a poor decision, received an NJP, and was close to being separated from the Service. Before seeking legal guidance, it was crucial for us to find someone with the knowledge and military experience to guide us properly. We reached out to Doug Hansen at Patriots Law Group for this guidance and knew right away that we had made the right choice. Doug proves to be a compassionate gentleman. He listened, communicated easily, and worked to understand our challenges. Having served in the military, he was incredibly knowledgeable about military law and took the time to understand our situation. Doug was always available and happily addressed our needs. The support and guidance provided by Doug contributed to our son’s case being reviewed; his rank was reinstated, and he has since been promoted. We want to extend our heartfelt thanks for the time and guidance provided while we navigated these challenging times.

My experience with Patriots’s law group was phenomenal. Patriots law group and staff, and in particular, Ashleigh were very responsive, helpful and supportive. She, as well as others I spoke to from the office explained the process in layman’s terms. I would/will use them again and recommend them to others too!

We worked with Pat Hughes with Patriots Law Group to file and eventually settle an EEOC claim. The process was overwhelming, but Pat was with us every step of the way. He was responsive and knowledgeable and supportive. We highly recommend Pat and PLG!

I cannot recommend Olivia highly enough! As someone in the military, finding a divorce attorney who understands the unique aspects of military life was essential, and Olivia exceeded all my expectations. From day one, she was incredibly understanding and respectful of my schedule, and she even worked with me to align the billing cycle to my military pay, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. Her knowledge of military requirements and benefits was invaluable, helping me navigate a difficult time with confidence and clarity. Olivia was not only professional and thorough but also genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for me and my family.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Patriots Law Group during a very stressful, challenging, and emotional period in my life. Navigating a divorce while being on active duty in the military is unlike any other stress you may ever experience, but the team at Patriots Law Group provided me with unwavering support, care, calm conversation and expert legal counsel. Mike Lyons, in particular, stood out as an exceptional lawyer. His dedication, empathy, and professionalism were evident in every interaction we had. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable about military divorce law, but he also took the time to understand my personal situation and provided me with the care and support I needed. Mike’s ability to explain complex legal matters in a way that were easy to understand and his prompt responses to my concerns were truly appreciated because at times, it felt as though the speeding train that I was on had no conductor. Thanks to Mike and his entire team at Patriots Law Group, I felt secure and well-represented throughout the entire process. I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service they provided. I highly recommend Patriots Law Group to any military personnel in need of any legal assistance. They truly understand the unique challenges we face and handle them with the utmost care, respect and expertise. CMSgt, USAF (Ret)

I went to see Matthew Hughes in February to present my story because I didn’t know if I had a case. Mr. Hughes did an initial consultation and charged me a flat rate for a 30 minute session to hear my story just to determine if I had a case. After listening Mr. Hughes told me the process what the possible outcomes are. I signed a representation agreement in March 2024 and after some processing time in June I received an email from the EEOC I was to sign it within 10 days or so. Once I clicked the link and signed in to review the charges being made against my employer and the statement that I was making it was a different story than what I had detailed out to Mr. Hughes. I reached out to Mr. Hughes to clarify where some of the information came from and reiterated my story he said you will be able to edit when you sign in and sign in which was not the case it was “accept or deny” as the options. When I emailed Mr. Hughes describing I did not see the edit option and speak about my situation he didn’t give me a clear answer he asked what I was looking for and just said I’ll get back to you. I came to the office to ask for guidance I was charged for the session but I don’t think I was listened to very well during my initial session because two months later I did get questions like “oh you didn’t say that?..” when asking where some of the claims came from. It was a scenario and I wanted to know if my situation amounted to a case where I can financially benefit because I felt like I had lost on opportunity and false promises made to me. I was made under the impression I did with the way I had laid out the series of events but when I saw the change in statement I feel that I’d have to bend the story and add to the event to be able to have a case; that would have been good to know 4 months ago that I would be having to bend the truth but that bending is easy to bring down because every communication with management is recorded and I would not have been recorded making the statement that was in the amendment made by Mr. Hughes. I still have not heard back from Mr. Hughes it’s been a month since he said “best course of action is to file a new case”. At this point Im under the impression there is not a case that could be brought up based on my personal statement. It would have been good to know in February so id have better guidance and not waste my time.

I am incredibly grateful for the legal representation provided by Olivia at Patriots Law Group, during my custody case. Her understanding of family law, coupled with her dedication to my case and her honesty, ensured that every aspect was handled with the utmost professionalism and care. She kept me fully aware of the outcomes, giving me the opportunity to make informed decisions, which I deeply appreciated. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing effective legal assistance in family matters.

My case was just a simple divorce, life-altering for me but probably nothing special for Olivia, but she did a fantastic job representing me and letting me know what my best options were all the time. I would not have followed her for her previous employers to Patriots otherwise. The rest of the Patriots staff have been nothing less than helpful and supportive the whole time as well.

Fantastic team that got my questions answered swiftly. Very experienced, specialized and diversified in all aspects of the law. Mr. Lyons and his military experience specifically was above and beyond what I expected. I will use no other firm for my legal needs.

Skilled and knowledgeable for family court. Familiar with the difficulties that come along with being an active duty service member. Provided guidance on points worth fighting for, and other points to make concessions on.

The Patriots Law has proven incredibly helpful to the veteran community. Pat and his team worked tirelessly in my group’s case.
