Review on attorney Tim Bilecki

This was my first time to ever be accused of anything wrong. For my case to go to a general court martial blew me away, and I knew that I needed to put up a fight back. That's when I started looking for Lawyers. What grabbed my attention the most was that Mr. Bilecki only deals with military cases... and I knew from his web page how dedicated he was to helping out military members. I met with a few other attorney's and was planning on meeting with more until I met Mr. Bilecki. He gave me an honest point of view and describe how he was wanting to handle this case. I made my decision 10 minutes after talking to him and never looked back. He stayed dedicated to my case throughout the long process that it took, and when it went to trail he just blew away the prosecuter with his knowledge of the law and how he handled himself. If you want an attorney that will be honest with you and fight the entire way through with out ever looking back you want him. It was a privledge to have worked with him during my trail and knowing how dedicated he was helped me stay that way through the process as well.

Great experience and amazing outcome.

Mr. Bilecki and his associates know UCMJ defense extremely well, and that's all they do. Mr. Bilecki and his associates are amazingly qualified and skilled in handling UCMJ cases. His associates include an excellent of counsel attorney, Mrs. Kiley Hyatt, Darron Ridder, a paralegal with 20 years of mi...litary experience, and a very pleasant and efficient secretary, Julia Takashita. Initially, my legal situation seemed daunting. The defense that was orchestrated for me was nothing short of genius. Bottom line up front - I went from nearly certainly getting a General Officer Article 15 (or worse) to getting a locally filed letter of reprimand (which will be shredded and forgotten when I PCS shortly). So essentially I wound up with no punishment besides a good scolding. Although I did commit some degree of misconduct, this was a sincere case where I was being made into a "fall guy" for several others who had been involved in similar misconduct. The beauty here is that the defense strategy appropriately redirected the command's focus off of me and onto an individual who had done far more heinous things than I had. So if you're under the impression that defense attorneys only get bad guys off the hook, think again. I truly feel a sense of justice from my outcome. Regardless of what you have done, having a knowledgable and aggressive advocate like Mr. Bilecki is imperative if you do not want to be trampled on by a toxic leader whose goal is to bring you down. When an over-zealous commander thinks you are guilty (even if you are not, or not as guilty as they think) they will stop at nothing to destroy you, regardless of the evidence for or circumstances under which you got in trouble. Expect any constitutional rights to be trampled all over, as well. This is particularly true if they are attempting to suppress information and save face at your expense. I was consistently intimidated, bullied and harassed by my commander. I specifically recall one day where I called Mr. Bilecki in a pinch when my commander was trying to pin me down with an answer to an arguably illegal question. Mr. Bilecki responded within 5 minutes with a direct phone call to my commander, who happens to be an O-6. The bullying stopped immediately and I didn't hear from him for several weeks. After that, he was much more respectful! Mr. Bilecki is not intimidated by commanders of any rank, and his confidence helped me to stay strong throughout this difficult time. Justice was done in my case, but military justice is far from automatic - you need a strong, proactive advocate. You may have gotten in trouble, sometimes serious trouble, but this in no way means you need to allow *anyone* to trample on your constitutionally guaranteed rights. I think this is the essence of Mr. Bilecki's philosophy. I am still proudly serving in my primary MOS with full potential for career advancement despite initially thinking that would never be an option again.

a hard charging attorney

My son was facing some serious charges by the military of aggravated assault on his child. The military was looking at sentencing him to brig time to up to 17 years of confinement. I had already hired an attorney from the beginning when these issues were brought forth. Later on about a month and a ha...lf after hiring my attorney for some odd reason he decided to drop out and told me that I needed to hire a new attorney. That's when my son and I decided to hire Mr. Bilecki and his team. Not only is Mr. Bilecki smart and well educated on the UCMJ but he is also extremely confident in the courtroom. He is definitely a hard charger in that courtroom and he sticks straight to the facts. He definitely shows the panel that the facts that he are defending for will be revealed to the panel after his cross examinations. I am actually glad that my first attorney dropped out on us and I was afforded the opportunity to get a second chance and hire the right attorney ( Tim Bilecki ) because he was well worth every single dollar that my son and I bargained for. I am ever so thankful to Mr. Bilecki for having my son cleared of those charges. Not once do I regret having to go the extra mile and spend the extra money to have him as representation for my son because if not for him and his team my son would be doing some serious brig time. I would definely recommend a hard charging attorney like Mr. Bilecki to any military person that has to defend themself against the military justice system. Do not go into the courtroom by yourself. Go in with a confident hard charging legal firm like Bilecki Law Group.

Saved my life

I was suspected of sexually assaulting a girl I met a bar off-post after we were both drinking. When I was called in by CID I could not believe they were going to charge me with this, because what we did was completely consensual. I knew I was innocent and didn't want to get taken to trial and poss...ibly found guilty. I hired The Bilecki Law group before I was charged, they did their own investigation and were able to show the law enforcement agents and prosecutors that the girl I hooked up with was lying. The process took a little while, but no charges were ever brought against me and I was able to move on with my career. If it wasn't for Mr. Bilecki and his team, I am confident my command would have charged me with rape or sexual assault. Mr. Bilecki and his team are extremely aggressive, thorough, and know what they are doing. I highly recommend them to anyone who is falsely accused. They saved my life.

A true testament of how excellent this law firm really is

Once I was charged, I contacted The Belicki Law Group, once an appointment was made I gave full details of what I knew about my case. They were very knowledgable about the law and gave me options on what I could do. Once I retained thier services, The Belicki Law Group were relentless in there own ...investigation to discover the truth. Once the Belicki Law Group discovered the real truth behind the offenses, They gave little tidbits of information to the prosecution that informed them they knew more than the opposition. The Belicki Law Group maintained my innocence throughout the whole process and did not run to the prosecution for a plea deal. They reminded them this will be a fully contested trial. The turning point in my trial was the devestating cross examination of my spouse and law enforcement. This uncovered the lies to the panel that there were more information they was with holding. The Belicki Law Firm was so confident in my case, the defense rested without calling a single witness. I was a little skeptical at first, but they are the experts in criminal law. I was fully astonished that the panel seen thur the lies and deception of the opposition. I received a NOT Guilty verdict for all charges and specifications. If I had not contacted the Belicki Law Group, I would have been convicted and possible spent life in confinement. I am forever indebt to this law firm. I can now look forward to my bright future in the military. My children, family,friends and co-workers thanks this firm for uncovering the real truth. If you are facing serious criminal charges, The Belicki Law Firm should be called first. If other defense lawyers has doubts about your case, call the Belicki Law Firm, they offer you options and how to fight to win your case. This was the best investment I have ever made in my life. Again I am forever indebt to this firm.
