Great Lawyer in Military Divorce and Retirement Law

John Camp is very knowledgable and profession and a pleasure to work with. His knowledge of military and divorce law is excellent and he knows the intricies of this complicated law. He is easy to talk to and gave me hope that I was not seeking answers in vain. John has worked well as a consultant f...or military law and I know that he would be as competent in a court room representing a client as a primary lawyer. I would recommend him and rehire him in a minute.

Invaluable expertise and support in healthcare options for former military spouses

When I divorced in 2010, my attorney unfortunately did not understand or comprehend my rights and entitlements as a military spouse. Because of his inadequacies in the area of Military Family Law, he could neither provide me effective and competent legal advice or ensure that I would be protected in... having access to affordable and quality healthcare after my divorce. In short….I did not get what I deserved and what I desperately needed because of my pre-existing medical problems. I was so disappointed and was left really in a mess. I was determined to find someone in the Universe that knew what they were talking about to help me. By luck or by God’s hand, I found an attorney, Wm. John Camp, who became my guiding hand and led me to secure my military healthcare entitlements when I thought they were all but lost forever! Mr. Camp immediately returned my calls. He provided precise and considered legal advice on the Continued Health Care Benefit Program (CHCBP), and led me out of the confusing and frustrating maze of that helpless feeling of not knowing what to do and too scared to do anything. Mr. Camp did what all others said could not be done, and led me to safety. Mr. Camp helped me to achieve a positive outcome. I am very also grateful for the very hard work Mr. Camp has done for the members, spouses, and former spouses of the armed forces. I am grateful for his involvement in writing a lengthy and informative article about all of the Healthcare Options for Former Military Spouses. But even more importantly when it comes to evaluating lawyers, I was most impressed with Mr. Camp’s kind heart and his willingness to reach out to me, a perfect stranger. He listened to my story and gave me the prompt and professional guidance that I needed to turn my desperate situation around. You just don’t find many lawyers willing to do that for strangers these days. Mr. Camp’s expertise and support were invaluable to me! He has my highest recommendation.
