Captain w/ 10 yrs of service retained @ BOI thanks to the experience and integrity of Eric Kopka, Attorney at Military Law

Bottom line: Mr. Eric Kopka and his team's work over a year's span resulted in the Marine Corps deciding to retain me in the service as a Captain at 10 years of service at a Board of Inquiry. Mr. Kopka himself has tremendous Marine Corps and legal experience as a Lieutenant Colonel that still serves ...in the Reserves. In consultation and during the conduct of the board he offered excellent, candid counsel that guaranteed success and maintained my integrity and honor as a Marine Corps Officer. His team are highly experienced, flexible, and patient professionals. I never once was worried about the attorney I hired or the team working alongside me. After the Board of Inquiry decided to retain me Mr. Kopka unfortunately missed his return flight because of how long the day was. Instead of staying overnight in a hotel to get a flight for the next day, which could have potentially incurred more cost to me as his client, he slept overnight in the airport. This is the kind of man Mr. Kopka is. I couldn't give a higher recommendation to anyone else for representation of military men and women that may have taken a misstep in their time of service. They are that good. Thank you once again to Mr. Eric Kopka, Freddie, and everyone I talked to over the phone on a near weekly basis over the last year! The trajectory of my life was forever positively impacted by this experience.

A Game-Changer in My Military Legal Battle

My case was highly unusual and deeply challenging. I was facing one count of sexual harassment and one count of harassment, and unfortunately, I received little to no support from the military. I felt completely in the dark about the status of my case and what to expect going forward. That changed th...e moment I hired Mr. Kopka. From the outset, Mr. Kopka brought clarity, structure, and unwavering support to my situation. He kept me fully informed about every development in my case and helped shift the way I was being treated by the military. It was clear that having a strong and experienced attorney like Mr. Kopka on my side made a significant impact. Beyond his legal expertise, Mr. Kopka provided genuine personal support during one of the most difficult times in my life. He took time out of his busy schedule to speak with me when I was struggling emotionally, offering reassurance and helping me stay focused and strong. Mr. Kopka stood by my side in court and, most importantly, delivered real results. The charges against me were reduced from sexual harassment and harassment to a two charges of fraternization. Instead of facing a court-martial, I received a non-judicial punishment (NJP), which was a much more favorable outcome. In my experience, military lawyers who know of Mr. Kopka consistently express great respect for his work—many say that if they ever needed representation, he would be their first call. If you're in need of a military defense attorney, I cannot recommend Mr. Kopka highly enough. He will fight for you with integrity, professionalism, and dedication every step of the way.

Eric and his tribe are the best!!!!

Eric and his tribe have been nothing but amazing since the start of my adversity and journey. This month marks 2-years and they are not only still by my side, but my families as well and helping/fighting hard to the finish line. Eric, Freddie and Hana have been nothing but respectful, professional, c...aring, kind, passionate about every word typed and spoken! They spent countless hours and days on my case and got me the BEST possible outcome and for that I am forever thankful and grateful. Not only is the Kopka Law Firm and his tribe top notch, they are like family now and if you don't have a Eric Kopka and a Freddie/ Hana in your life, you're truly missing out. They take their jobs and their clients so serious and they will fight to the death for service members! Not only was it about my case, but they always remembered to ask me about ME and how I am doing and how my kids were and how my was was through all of this and even had conversations with her about it and that went a long way. That's true passion and leadership! THEY GET IT and GOT IT RIGHT and they prove that daily with their clients! There are no amount of words that my wife Candis and I could ever muster up to show our gratitude for your hard work, diligence and total dedication to my case. Thank you so very much and JOB WELL DONE! STAY MOTIVATED and as always, NEVER FORGET WHY YOU STARTED IN THE FIRST PLACE! Ladies and gentlemen, if you are in need of a lawyer and a tribe who genuinely care, pick up the phone and call the Eric M. Kopka Law Firm and you won't be disappointed! #NOCHOICE SEMPER FIDELIS, Beth Abbott
