Eric Michael Kopka

From the beginning of the process Eric handled my legal issues with compassion, professionalism and, and expertise that left me feeling confident as we navigated through my case. From the article 32 hearing Mr. Kopka showed his skill by being able to remove charges even at the probable cause level. M...r. Kopka was able to not only work with my detailed military counsel but provide them with insight and strategy that greatly improved the overall strength of my defense. Several motions in front of a military judge were won as we approached trial. Mr. Kopka's skill and expertise in trial greatly outmatched that of the government. From opening statements, to closing Mr. Kopka presented my case clearly and confidently. He handled the direct examination of our witnesses perfectly, drawing out the necessary information and more. On cross examination Mr. Kopka exposed inconsistencies in the government's case. Overall Mr. Kopka was the best choice and I highly recommend his services.

I cannot say enough about my experience with Mr. Kopka and his legal team. I found myself in an unexpected situation and was fortunate enough to have been referred to Mr. Kopka. At first conversation, I knew I wanted him to represent me. He and Freddie were fully available throughout the seven-mont...h BOI process to answer any questions or concerns that I had and provide assistance with all responses required, leading up to the BOI. I was never without an understanding of the BOI process and his communication with the SJA and myself was above and beyond. I could not have imagined going through this process without Mr. Kopka and his legal team, and do not think I would have had the same outcome had I not hired him. I truly felt as though I was not just another client but he and his team really cared about me and what I was going through. I would absolutely recommend him and am beyond grateful to have had him on my side.

Eric and Frederique are an amazing team. They are very timely with their responses, and ensure that as soon as they get information you get it as well. Payment schedule was clearly outlined up front, as well as what I should expect as far as a timeline for my case. Once I had continuously denied NJP,... and my case went to Court Martial, it was like watching an artist. He and Freddie are so meticulous with details and their statements, that I honestly feel bad for any prosecutor that has to deal with them. He makes sure he only deals with facts, and that you know he is doing everything in his power to keep you as the client well informed and comfortable with whatever the outcome may be. I would recommend Eric and Freddie to anyone about anything, they are an amazing team and ensured I was able to continue my service to our nation.

I hired Eric when I was deployed after I was the subject of a command investigation due alleged misconduct. I knew I wanted to hire a former military judge advocate who was familiar with the Uniformed Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), not to mention he had great reviews. Hiring Eric was a no brainer. ... He and Freddie were very accommodating of my schedule while I was deployed and addressed all my questions and concerns. He immediately gave me peace of mind. Upon return from my deployment, I met with Eric and Freddie in person and they were just as wonderful as they were on the phone and via email. After the conclusion of the command investigation, the command took no action; however, a separate agency initiated a secondary investigation into the same alleged misconduct. He again, guided me through this process and put my mind at ease. In total, my investigations lasted almost a year. Although I was not subjected to any administrative or disciplinary action, having Eric on my team was invaluable. I cannot stress the quality of representation and expert knowledge Eric possesses. I would hire him again and I highly recommend him for anyone needing representation in the military.
