Consistent and Constant Excellent Service
Eric and his team provided excellent support throughout my PERB process. They were always available to answer any questions I had and kept me focused on what needed to happen throughout the stressful process.

Incredibly professional
I have been active duty in the Marine Corps and I was facing some serious sexual assault allegations. I was completely blind sided from them and I felt helpless ans very scared, as it was a life changing event. I called a couple law firms in the Jacksonville area and none of them stood out to me as ...

Outstanding Legal Team
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.

Best Military Lawyer!

Excellent Legal Team
Mr. Kopka and his team were with me every step of my legal process. They kept me well informed and I was always able to get a timely response for questions I had. I would enthusiasticly recommend him to anyone who needs experienced military representation.
"Eric and I both served in the Marine Corps together. His reputation is that of a fierce litigator who fights for his clients. I fully endorse this lawyer."
"I have worked with Eric on several cases and can tell you that his attention to detail, work ethic, and passion to get his clients the best results are exceptional. He is great in the courtroom and an overall great guy. Eric has my strongest recommendation."
"I worked under Eric Kopka in 2008. He is great in the courtroom, intelligent, and can cut through to what matters in the case. Eric is a guy people want to be around. I fully endorse him to expertly handle any military matter."
"This is my go-to guy for military affairs. I am an attorney and I represent many marines in criminal matters. Naturally, civilian criminal cases have military ramifications. If you need a military lawyer, you can trust Mr. Kopka to do a fantastic job!"
"My partner Jason Harris and I regularly collaborate with Eric Kopka's office on matters for clients needing both civilian and military representation. Whenever a client needs a referral for base legal work, we send it to Mr. Kopka and his law office."
"Eric is a talented, hard working attorney. Whether you face trial by court-martial or administrative separation, you need his experience. I am a USMC veteran, a former federal prosecutor and a former state prosecutor. I know the power and resources that the government has at their fingertips. If I were facing an issue involving misconduct in the military, I would hire Eric....no question."
