We Work Outside of the System.
If you are accused of something you didn’t do – or the military has exaggerated what actually happened – you need legal firepower. Korody Law is outside the system. As civilian military lawyers, we bring superior experience and knowledge – more than 60 years of military law and litigation (trial) experience. We have represented hundreds of military members – active duty, reservist, national guard. We are not beholden to the command or the military. We arenot looking for promotions or a next set of orders. We are hired to do one thing – fight for our client, and win.
When so much is at stake, do you really want to take a chance with an inexperienced lawyer?
Or, do you want someone in your corner who has fought the fight, and won?
When you are accused of a crime by the military, you should know two things. First, the military will turn on you. If you think that because you were previously in the good graces of your CO or XO or your Master Chief or Master Sergeant or NCO you’ll be “fine,” you are wrong. To be accused is to lose. Superiors will separate themselves from you. Peers will trash you to gain an advantage. Your commander will send you to trial or move to separate you just because it’s easier than finding the allegations to be baseless. And, with one misstep, that is how you lose your career and VA benefits and suffer the other consequences of being convicted of a crime.
Second, military defense counsel for the most part are junior JAGs. They often won’t help you until you are formally charged. You can’t call them in the middle of the night when NCIS or CID shows up at your door wanting to search your house or barracks room. They have a commanding officer. They have to worry about a service reputation and a next set of orders.
