Bruce A White

I couldn't be more satisfied with his work. I'm an E-4 in the Navy and was facing drug possession accusations under article 112a. Immediately following the NJP I hired him on and he's been a huge asset ever since; putting together an NJP appeal, helping me to put together a strong book for the board,... and spending countless hours going over the case with me. It was a hard-fought board in which his skills as an attorney really shone, but in the end it was a victory of 3-0 with no misconduct found. I have no doubt in my mind that if I hadn't gone to Mr. White, I would have lost and been processed out of the Navy with at most a General discharge in-hand. Hiring him was the best decision I could have made, and I can't recommend him highly enough.

Mr. White is a fighter. There is no other way to put it. I was within a year of my end of my active service and I found out I had been falsely accused of sexual assault. I am a Sergeant in the Marine Corps. I knew that this accusation could have been the end of me. Once I had found out of the accusat...ions I immediately started looking for a good lawyer. I found Mr. White on this site and emailed him, and within two hours he called me despite the fact that it was a late evening around the holidays. From the minute I spoke with him I could tell I was going to hire him. He listened to every word I said and even though no official charges had been brought forward at that time, he started working on ways to counsel me. He even met with me to explain how everything would play out, mind you this was before I ever even mentioned hiring him. But then I did and it was the best decision I could have ever made. Nearly a year of litigation went by before I eventually faced a General Court Marshal. Over this time Mr. White worked with me listening to every word so he could view my case and our defense from every angle. The way he worked with my military defense counsel was beyond compare. If I ever had questions or even just had a rough day and needed a boost of confidence Mr. White was always a phone call away. If there was ever a time he couldn't answer, an email or a text was sent to me explaining that he would call me back as soon as he could get to the phone. Every lawyer has multiple clients, but it felt like I was the only client of Mr. White. He has a way of making his clients feel like they are nearly family, while never losing an ounce of professionalism. Through all of the hearings and finally the days in court it's clear that Mr. White's knowledge of the law, specifically military law, was second to none. If you feel backed into a corner and up against the ropes hire Mr. White and watch him fight for you, and your future. You will not be disappointed. I was acquitted of all charges in a time when sexual assault is such an up hill battle and I owe it all to Mr. White.

I recently found myself in the middle of a personality conflict with my Commanding Officer and was recommended for a negative administrative action (Detachment for Cause) that I felt was unjustified and would prevent me from advancing to the next level and ultimately preventing me from meeting my car...eer goals. I had a short time frame to submit a statement (telling my side of the story) and needed someone with a strong military background to ensure I got it right and enabled me to keep my emotions in check. After conducting some research and meeting for a quality free consultation, Mr. White and I work together to draft my statement. 

Mr. White was straightforward, responsive and very professional. He worked tirelessly for several days reviewing all the technical information and applicable regulations, and was very instrumental in helping express my story. 

The product we produced was much better than I could have done on my own. I took comfort knowing Mr. White and I had done all we could in submitting my side of the story. 

The hard work paid off as the requested Detachment for Cause was disapproved and all reference to this action was removed from my official personnel record. I am very thankful I chose a fellow Officer and formal Marine. I will always remember you as a good friend. Thank you and Semper Fi!

I was recommended for negative administrative action (Relief for Cause) that I felt was unjustified and would prevent me from assuming command and advancing, ultimately preventing me from achieving my career goals. I had a short time frame to submit a statement on my behalf, and wanted to hire someo...ne with a strong military back ground to ensure I got it right. After some quick research and a quality initial consultation, Mr. White and I agreed to work together to draft my statement. Mr. White was straight forward and professional. He worked tirelessly for four days reviewing my information and applicable regulations, and was instrumental in helping express my story. He gladly worked with my assigned Military attorney to help ensure all service specific details were covered. The product we produced was much better than I could have done on my own, and no matter how the final decision turned out, I took comfort knowing Mr. White and I had done all we could in submitting a solid rebuttal. The hard work paid off as the recommended Relief for Cause was determined to be unfounded. I have since advanced to E8, and assumed my first command. I am very thankful I chose the right professional for the job. Thank you Bruce!

My son and I needed of good lawyer for a Courts-Martial case. In our enlisted Navy and Marine lives, we knew little about the law or lawyers, but we knew we hit upon a quality representative when we found Attorney Bruce White. He wasted not a minute of time, nor a dollar of fee. He got right to ...collecting the informations and evidences which would benefit our case. Mr. White, a Marine Corps Colonel (retired), was quickly aboard the Navy ship to conduct timely interviews. He made energetic use of his top-flight legal knowledge and UCMJ experience to successfully argue a greatly reduced legal exposure. We felt better already, and knew that we had made an excellent choice for our Attorney. Mr. White kept in close communication as the trial approached. He welcomed our concerns and views, and took the time to show us how to best present our case. In the courtroom, he commanded his positions; picking up every helpful issue, rejecting all unsupported attacks, and exerting clear control over the subjects and timings of the presentations. When the other attorney’s cleared out of the room for lunch recess, Attorney White stayed at the defense table reviewing the morning’s testimonies, and planning further for the afternoon. Although a long trial, he kept his expert edge all through the afternoon testimonies, yet he never seemed rushed. It was clearly evident that he knew exactly what he needed to do to help us, and he did. In the end, we definitely did get that best possible outcome: A knowledge that we had covered each and every legal defense, had our personal human concerns spoken and heard, and all of this presented in a manner which won the respectful approval of the very experienced Judge. We definitely did achieve the outcome we had hoped for: Which were the heartfelt handshakes at trial’s end, and an ability to walk away from the courtroom knowing we had obtained the best defense possible. Thank you, Col. White!
