As a military member, I had a matter I needed reviewed. Eric was very responsive and provided wise counsel. He has an exceptionally strong eye for detail and a great deal of experience working across the spectrum of issues involving members of the military. He was easy to talk to and had a calm demea...nor that was reassuring. Most importantly, I found Eric to be an extremely talented attorney who cares greatly about his clients. He has my highest recommendation!

If you find yourself in any kind of legal trouble please call Mr. Kopka immediately. I’ve been in the Marine Corps over 10 years and was facing possibly losing my career over allegations of fraternization and drug involvement. Mr. Kopka and Freddie were both very knowledgeable and friendly. They guid...ed me throughout the entire process. There were many times I felt defeated but Mr. Kopka and Freddie always gave me a boost of confidence reassuring me they were on my side. Mr. Kopka and Freddie will tell you exactly what they need from you. Be sure to listen and follow their guidance. I know it can be hard trusting someone else with the faith of your career but please understand Mr. Kopka and Freddie are experts at what they do. I’m confident if you follow their guidance then you will be successful. My board came back with NO BASIS met, meaning not guilty of anything. This was a huge burden lifted off of my shoulders. I am now able to continue on with my career.

Eric Kopka and his paralegal Frederique Bedson are amazing!!! Extremely knowledgeable of the system and very thorough in their preparation and delivery. DO NOT WAIT until it’s too late, hire him as soon as there is any sign you might need an attorney! Had I just trusted anyone to represent me or e...ven the assigned counsel, then the outcome would have vastly different. Eric will give you all the facts and recommendations to help you understand the legal process and make decisions. I lived in a completely different state and yet that never slowed Eric down! He was far more responsive, active, and knowledgeable than my originally assigned counsel that was working on the same base that I was. Not to say that assigned counsel are bad…but most are typically less experienced and are overloaded with other cases, standard military training, education for furthering their career, and the list goes on. My assign counsel was professional and seemed eager to assist, however they were never available and rarely had information for me. It was extremely hard for me to just trust a stranger with my career and future so I asked a great deal of questions. Eric and his paralegal were patient with me and explained everything along the way. He was far more knowledgeable of the process than my command, command legal, and apparently those advising my command. When it was said and done, Eric was right about everything. Don’t just hope things go well, take action by hiring someone that understands the process and has done it exceptionally well for many years…..call Eric Kopka!!!
