Not every military legal issue rises to the level of a court-martial. Many service members face disciplinary actions such as non-judicial punishment (Article 15), administrative separation, or reprimands. While these proceedings may seem less serious, the reality is that they can have a lasting impact on your career, rank, and reputation. That’s why you need an experienced team specializing in Military Discipline Defense.
At Kral Military Defense, attorneys Stephanie Kral and Abbigayle Hunter focus exclusively on defending service members. As former JAG attorneys, they understand the nuances of military discipline and the stakes involved in every case.
Why Military Discipline Defense Is Critical
Administrative actions may not involve prison time, but they can still damage your career permanently. A negative performance evaluation, loss of promotion opportunities, or involuntary separation can derail years of dedicated service. Skilled military law lawyers can step in early, build your case, and often prevent minor issues from escalating into career-ending outcomes.
How Civilian Military Law Attorneys Help
Civilian attorneys provide several advantages over military-assigned counsel:
- Focused attention – Civilian lawyers typically handle fewer cases.
- Independence – They are not part of your chain of command.
- Experience – Kral and Hunter have defended thousands of service members in administrative and disciplinary matters.
