Eric Michael Kopka

Eric is one the best Military Law professionals that I have had the privilege to work with. I had a very difficult and challenging case, one that received a lot of top-level scrutiny, and with Eric's extensive experience and well-developed network of relationships, I was able to have my case heard in... a fair and unprejudiced manner. Eric provided key insights at critical times, and helped to review important letters and correspondence. Additionally, Eric assisted my civilian attorney and provided key insights to the parallel civil court proceedings that assisted in that venue tremendously. I would highly recommend Eric's services to anyone who feels that they are getting unfairly prosecuted or feeling the effects of undo command influence.

I was facing serious administrative punishment through the Marine Corps and I have never felt so helpless in my entire life. My initial consultation with Mr. Kopka was reassuring that I was having fate in him to help sort out my problems. He understood the potential consequences that I was facing and... explained the different avenues to take that would work out in my favor. He put a lot of time into my case and presented it well to the appropriate personnel involved. Mr. Kopka will represent you like you would represent yourself. I never doubted his abilities to get ahead to help me in my dire need. All cases are different and the outcomes will vary as well, but if you are looking into hiring an attorney, look no further...Mr. Kopka and his associate will do everything within their power to get you the verdict you think you deserve (I know I did). They are very professional and communication process is outstanding; my phone calls were answered, if not they returned my call in a timely manner. Mr. Kopka has the knowledge and expertise in dealing with military law and military orders...A friend of mine had recommended to contact him because he has a good reputation in his field of work and I am recommending anyone who needs his service because I had first hand experience that he can get the job done. My case was closed with an outcome he said he would do his best to achieve and he did. Very pleased with their service. Thank you Mr. Kopka!...I can now move on with my life.

I hired Mr. Kopka after I was notified that someone had made sexual assault allegations against me. He quickly reviewed my case and worked closely with me every step of the way. He has a no "bs" attitude and worked diligently on my case which was scheduled to go to a court martial. The government ...dropped all charges soon after I hired Mr. Kopka. I would HIGHLY recommend him and would never handle a military legal situation without his assistance. I owe my career, reputation, and more importantly, my future to Mr. Kopka and his team.

I was facing a Summary Court Martial and possible administrative separation after 15 years in the Marine Corps. Mr Kopka was very honest and up front with best and worst case scenarios which could happen due to the legal issues I had. Fortunately, Mr Kopka was able to help me secure the best possib...le out come for my case. Mr Kopka and his office worked tirelessly on my case and were available whenever I needed them. I always received an immediate response from Ms Duverger, the paralegal and felt completely comfortable and confident in their ability to handle my case. Mr Kopka is very familiar with legal and law enforcement personal (along the East Coast) which helps him to fully understand the situation of a case and provide the best legal options to his clients. Thanks to Law Office of Mr Kopka, I will be able to finish my Marine Corps career with an HONOR!

Upon returning home from a deployment I was notified by my chain of command that I had tested positive for a controlled substance while operational. It was apparent that I needed to seek help and guidance from outside of the Marine Corps as I was immediately notified that administrative separation wa...s imminent. From my first conversation with Eric I was given hope of a future despite actions that were being taken against me. Eric explained the differences between allegations & charges, how false positives are very common in the military and the process to be taken in order to defend my innocence. The entire process from start to finish was lengthy and took relatively 6 months to fully clear my name. With Eric’s help I was never subjected to a separation board or Court Martial which would have only lengthened the process. Eric’s knowledge, professionalism and confidence was apparent from start to finish. He continually took a strategic approach to defending me and taught me the essence of when it was imperative to remain silent in order to allow him to rebuttal. Eric is one of the sole reasons why I still have a career within the military. He has my utmost appreciation, respect and recommendation. If you are seeking any sort of false prosecution from the military or are in need of legal representation this is the individual you need to hire to defend you in your case. Eric, sincerely thank you for your dedication, commitment and audacity when it comes to defending those of us who have been wrongly accused. Your impact has been inspirational and your devotion to duty has allowed me to serve in the capacity I was designed for.
