At Military Veterans Law Center, we understand that facing nonjudicial punishment (NJP) can have serious consequences on your military career. Our dedicated team of attorneys specializes in providing expert guidance and representation in the practice area of Nonjudicial Punishment Advice and Appeals. If you are facing NJP or seeking advice on how to navigate the process, we are here to help.

Overview of Nonjudicial Punishment (NJP):

Nonjudicial punishment, also known as Article 15 in the military justice system, is a disciplinary action that can be imposed by a commanding officer for misconduct committed by service members. NJP is an administrative process that does not involve a trial by court-martial but can result in significant penalties, including loss of rank, pay, and privileges.

Our Approach:

Thorough Case Evaluation: Our experienced attorneys will conduct a comprehensive review of your case, including the circumstances surrounding the alleged misconduct and the evidence against you. We will analyze the legality and fairness of the NJP process to determine if any rights were violated.

Guidance and Defense Strategy: We will provide you with clear guidance on the NJP process, explaining your rights and options. Our attorneys will develop a strong defense strategy tailored to your specific situation, aiming to mitigate or eliminate the potential adverse consequences.

Negotiation and Advocacy: Our attorneys are skilled negotiators who will engage with the commanding officer or the NJP authority on your behalf. We will work diligently to present your case effectively, seeking a fair and just resolution through negotiation or mitigation of the punishment.

Appeals Process: If you are unsatisfied with the outcome of the NJP proceedings or believe that the punishment imposed was excessive or unjust, we can assist you with filing an appeal. Our team will guide you through the appeals process, ensuring that all necessary documentation is prepared and filed within the prescribed timelines.
