Eric Michael Kopka

Mr. Kopka and his team helped me with an administrative process. They gathered strong evidence in my favor and presented an effective and cohesive message. Mr. Kopka is very experienced and an expert in military law. He met and talked with me throughout and made sure I was comfortable with the proces...s. If you want to improve your odds of a favorable outcome I'd recommend contacting him as soon as possible.

Topic: Political bias while in uniform Discussion: During my retirement ceremony I elected to have Donald Trump LOA read instead of the current sitting President. The narrator read the LOA that was mailed from Donald Trump himself and signed. Added was the following: Signed Donald J. Trump 45th... President and soon to be 47th". Ultimately (5) IG complaints were filed (IMEF, IIMEF, IIIMEF, 1stMarDiv, and HQMC). The investigation was launched, and a narrative was formed, I was never read my rights or suspected of a crime, but I was placed on legal hold and my retirement was in limbo. My name was entered in the "Officers Blackbook" and I was informed of the administrative process that could take 9-12 months easily putting my retirement plans on hold and uncertainty. Eric Kopka and his team took my case and begun to work immediately by calling top leadership in the Division letting them know he is representing me. I began to see results as Eric Kopka walked this administrative process every step of the way and ultimately navigating my package through DCMR&A. My retirement ceremony was held on Sept 12th and my case was resolved Nov 27th . My name was removed from the "Officers Blackbook" and a letter was entered into my OMPF. I was able to keep my original day of EAS and carry-on with my retirement plans. It was a reassuring feeling knowing that Eric Kopka specializes in Military Law, the active-duty legal teams throughout the levels of leadership knew Eric Kopka's pedigree and ensured my package was the first to get actioned. I wanted to share my experience with future clients because I did not know where to turn and by word of mouth, I was able to get Eric's information and make a phone call. Eric Kopka and team, thank you for your professionalism, timeliness, and speedy results. Ryan Spyker

My really good friend was falsely accused and convicted at a court martial because he had poor legal representation from the military. I encouraged him to seek a civilian lawyer who specializes in military law. Eric Kopka and his firm was highly recommended by another good military friend of mine wh...o had used him and had a favorable outcome. My friend hired Eric and his team to represent him at his administrative separation board. Eric and his team had three months to prepare for the board in hopes that they could appeal to the members for a possible favorable discharge or best case, retention of service in the USMC. Eric’s preparedness, attention to every detail and superior military wisdom not only proved my friend was innocent on all accounts but was able to be retained for service even after the conviction. I highly recommend Eric and his firm. It was the best decision made to hire him. If you’re looking for military representation there is no doubt in my mind that Eric is the best candidate.

Mr. Kopka and his team are reliable, punctual, and professional. In the face of legal and administrative action against my career, Mr. Kopka and his team worked tirelessly on my behalf. I know this because of the results they produced in my case. I am still a proud client of Mr. Kopka, and have refer...red a fellow service member to his services as well. Thank you Eric and Frederique for all that you do.

I retained Mr. Kopka to assist my son in an unjust Adminitrative Separation board. Mr. Kopka very capably and thoroughly proved my son's innocence in the circumstances that led to the board. He took the time to interview me several times and kept me informed so that I would know what to expect during... the procedure. The charges against my son where found to have no basis thanks to Mr. Kopka's handling of the evidence and testimonies.
