Korody Law represents Sailors stationed at Naval Station Mayport in administrative separation boards, NJP/Captain’s Mast, security clearance matters, command investigations, and court-martial cases. With decades of military experience and a Jacksonville office located close to the base, we provide aggressive, experienced defense for all Mayport commands.
Founded by former Navy JAG Captain Patrick Korody, our firm has defended thousands of service members throughout Florida and worldwide.
Serving All Commands at Naval Station Mayport
We regularly represent Sailors assigned to:
- Destroyers (DDG) homeported in Mayport
- Freedom-class and Independence-class LCS crews
- HSM helicopter squadrons (HSM-40 / HSM-48 / HSM-60)
- Amphibious Ready Group (ARG) units rotating through
- SURFLANT administrative and operational commands
- FRCSE detachments
Because of Mayport’s high-tempo operational environment, Sailors frequently face administrative actions following incidents on ships, on liberty, or during detachments.
Administrative Separation Board Lawyer for Mayport Sailors
If you were notified of administrative separation at Mayport, your career and benefits are at risk. We defend Sailors facing ADSEP for:
- Drug abuse / positive urinalysis
- Alcohol incidents (DUI, fights, disorderly conduct)
- Fraternization or inappropriate relationships
- “Pattern of misconduct”
- Security clearance issues
- Poor performance or not meeting Navy standards
Commands often dual-track Sailors with both NJP and an administrative separation board. You have the right to fight for retention. We aggressively challenge evidence, cross-examine witnesses, and present compelling retention cases for Mayport Sailors.

NJP / Captain’s Mast Representation at Naval Station Mayport
NJP at Mayport can have severe consequences, especially for Sailors assigned to deployable units. We represent service members facing NJP for:

- Article 107 (false official statements)
- Article 121 (theft)

Sailors often think NJP is unavoidable — but you have rights, including the right to refuse NJP in certain circumstances and demand a court-martial. We advise you on the strategic impact for your command, career, and clearance.
