Proudly Serving All Five Branches of Service
Dallas Based Law Firm, Worldwide Military Law Practice
Administrative Separation Board or Board of Inquiry · Misconduct · IRR Mobilization Delay and Exemption
Anywhere the United States has a military presence — whether domestically, in Europe, Asia, the Middle East or elsewhere — there are servicemen and servicewomen who need experienced and independent legal advice and representation.
The military law firm of attorney Patrick J. McLain is dedicated to serving the needs of Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard personnel worldwide.
We offer aggressive military law representation for hard chargers — men and women who realize that every administrative proceeding or criminal charge can have a lasting effect on their military careers and futures in civilian life.
Contact our Dallas office today to schedule an initial consultation with an attorney who is dedicated to defending military service members.
Put Experience on Your Side
When being tried in a military court, you need a civilian lawyer. Few attorneys have the extensive experience and comprehensive military knowledge of attorney Patrick J. McLain:
- 20 years of active service in the Marine Corps
- Former federal prosecutor
- Former USMC defense attorney
- Retired court martial trial judge
He will aggressively defend your rights in courts martial, discharges and nonjudicial punishment proceedings across the country and around the world.
Independent Representation in Administrative Proceedings
Our law firm represents Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines who have been disabled due to illness, injury or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and are having a hard time getting the benefits they deserve from the physical review board (PEB).
We have an impressive record of success in helping our clients obtain a delay or exemption if a call up or mobilization would pose a serious hardship to them and their families.
When You Can't Afford Not To Fight
Whether you are facing charges for minor misconduct, or you are charged with fraud, sex crimes, drug possession, war crimes, murder or rape, we will provide you with realistic advice about your case, and aggressively defend both your rights and your military career.
There is no double jeopardy protection in the military. That means you can be charged for the same offense in a court martial proceeding and in civilian court. Hiring an experienced criminal defense and military law attorney might be the best investment you ever make.
If you are serious about your career and are willing to fight hard to win your case, we will be there by your side. Call our Dallas office at (214) 377-1470 (ext. 227) to schedule an initial consultation. You may also send us an e-mail.
