Dedicated to the Details

With permeating gratitude, I extend praise and appreciation to Eric Kopka and his associates for their outstanding representation during the most challenging period of my career. The comprehensive care and attention to detail initiated a foundation of trust and confidence in their ability to provide... sound counsel and unwavering support. Anyone who has experienced legal challenges or familialy been in proximity to military legal obstables is aware of the psychological burden associated with it. Eric and his team took the time to thoroughly comprehend the circumstances and explain the legal process, which I was completely foreign to. Even when I had repetative inquires, concerns about timeliness, and a lack of faith in the legal process, Eric reassured us that the trajectory and approach was appropriate and proffessional. His professionalism, responsiveness, and commitmentto achieving the best possible outcome is what stood out the most. Second to that was his teams follow through with questions my family had throughout the legal process. Truly, Eric and Freddie's ability to juggle multiple cases with diligence and precision is remarkable. I would not hesitate to recommend Eric Kopka & Associates to any individual or military service member seeking experienced, knowledgeable, and dedicated legal representation. Their support made a tremendous difference to myself and my family's life; for which I will always be grateful.

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

Exceptional Representation: A Testimonial to Mr. Kopka's Expertise

I wholeheartedly endorse the legal services provided by Mr. Kopka and his team. As a former client, I had the privilege of working with Mr. Kopka during a challenging period in my military career. I was facing allegations of violating Article 92 of the UCMJ and administrative separation stemming from... a positive urinalysis test. Separation would have ended my eight years in the Marine Corps and resulted in the forfeiture of my benefits. I knew I was innocent and immediately began looking for military lawyers. After consulting with Mr. Kopka and his team, I knew that hiring him would be the most successful course of action. Throughout the entire process, Mr. Kopka and his team demonstrated a thorough understanding of military law, and a genuine care for my case. Their expertise and guidance were instrumental in navigating appropriate responses to the allegations and preparing for the separation board hearing. Mr. Kopka's team displayed exceptional professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail in every interaction. They maintained open and transparent communication throughout the entire process, providing timely updates and addressing my concerns. During the separation board hearing, Mr. Kopka's advocacy skills and presentation were outstanding. He presented a compelling and well-reasoned case on my behalf, demonstrating thorough understanding of the facts and military law. I was impressed by his situational awareness and critical thinking. It was clear to me that he understood the social tempo and environment of the room which made a significant impact on the outcome of my case. The board found no basis to the allegations against me which is testament to Mr. Kopka's expertise and dedication. I highly recommend him and his team to anyone facing similar challenges in the military justice system. In my opinion, Mr. Kopka and his team are exceptional attorneys who possess the skills, expertise, and personal qualities necessary to provide outstanding representation to their clients. I strongly endorse Mr. Kopka and his team to anyone in need of a skilled and dedicated military defense attorney. Their exceptional service, expertise, and commitment to their clients are truly unparalleled, and I have no doubt that they will continue to provide outstanding representation to their clients in the future.
