Michael Stuart Saylor

If you are reading this and in need of a great lawyer, look no further. A few months ago I found myself in the same position you are. Let me tell you from the start, Capt Saylor is the man you want to represent you. I’m an NCO and have been serving in the USAF for roughly 9 years. When I found o...ut I was being charged and facing court martial for an alleged UCMJ Art 112a violation I was shocked and my world slowly started to crumble around me. After receiving my case Capt Saylor immediately contacted me to start going over my options and possible outcomes. He was professional, knowledgeable, and most importantly genuinely concerned for my well-being, both in and out of the legal sense. I had done my homework and even read another Avvo review on the Captain and immediately felt some relief knowing that he would be representing me. Despite the fact that my career was possibly coming to an end, Capt Saylor encouraged me to stay positive. He called me regularly and was very proactive with my case, working things behind the scene to ensure that the case had the best possible outcome. Once the trial started and we were in the courtroom, I knew I had the best representation a guy could have. Capt Saylor had a plan, and made sure I understood every aspect of it. When he spoke, everybody listened; which is more than I can say for the prosecution. They were not well spoken, stumbled through their examinations of witnesses, and didn’t seem prepared at all for the trial. When the verdict came I was extremely anxious but couldn’t help but feel positive about the outcome. Capt Saylor’s representation and display of knowledge, skill, and ability had me almost sure that the case would go in our favor. The jury gave the verdict, “Not guilty.” I cannot express how relieved I was hearing this. After the trial, Capt Saylor not only told me what to expect work wise, but kept in touch to make sure I transitioned smoothly back to the way things were before any of this happened. Word cannot express how grateful I am that Capt Saylor represented me and our paths crossed. If you are under investigation or have found yourself in need of legal representation, look no further; you have found the best!

If you're reading this wondering if you should have Capt Saylor represent you, then you're probably just like me wondering "how did I end up here?" and just be glad you found Capt Saylor along the way. I came from a long line of men in my family who served and at the age of 18 upon graduating high... school, I joined the military and have faithfully served my country for over a decade now. Not long after I had returned to the U.S. from Afghanistan where I was deployed, I found myself being interrogated by O.S.I. Before I knew it, my rights had been read, I wrote a statement against myself, and I was now under investigation. After 6 hours, my whole world as I knew it was turned around. I was being accused of drug use (violation of the UCMJ, article 112a.) from the days of being a brand new 2d Lt. To add to it, they compiled an additional charge of making a false official statement regarding my clearance form SF86 when answering the drug use question I check the box next to "No" (violation of the UCMJ, article 107). At the time of interrogation I was a brand new captain and it was almost two years that passed as I waited for the prosecution to drag this ordeal out. It was pushed to a court martial even though the pretrial decision authority recommended against a court martial. I knew going forward that I had the best possible fighting chance because I got lucky enough to have Capt Saylor on my side! From day one he was proactive and professional; making countless phone calls and e-mails to make sure I was okay, understood everything that was going on, was aware of all possible scenarios and outcomes, as well as always ending with answering my tireless questions. He made me feel like my case was the ONLY one on his plate when I'm pretty sure he must have had the maximum client load or close to whatever the military can give to an ADC. I'm sure we can all think of those in any organization who are the go getters and go above and beyond for various reasons while there are those who do the bare minimum to get by. Capt Saylor is one of those men who NO MATTER WHAT, whether anyone knew it or not if he was doing more than his job description and pay grade, he did it from a genuine place that comes from the heart. He is one of those who put that maximum effort because he cares about people. He has empathy, he's intelligent, he's funny, honest, and compassionate. I feel beyond blessed to have Capt Saylor represent me! Leading up to the trial while of course I had little waves of nervousness and anxiety, I also had this odd sense of peace and calmness going into it because I KNEW for a fact that Capt Saylor did and would do everything humanly possible exhausting all possibilities to defend me yielding the best possible outcome. In court he captivated the jury. When he would talk, they would look up at him with admiration in their eyes. It made me so proud that he was my lawyer especially compared to the prosecution who side by side they looked so unprepared, novice, and desperate. The case could have gone various directions, however directly because of the motions that Capt Saylor wrote and submitted due to OSI coercing my statement and lack of corroboration, we won the case! Without Capt Saylor, I wouldn't be sitting here writing this review. The government has all the money at their disposal to investigate you, to pile on witnesses and subpoena others, unlimited manpower (they had about 5 people from the Jag office working together with the prosecution during the actual Court Martial) while you are just one person. With Capt Saylor, you will give yourself the best fighting chance!!! The words "NOT GUILTY" pouring out of the jury president's mouth brought a flood of tears to my eyes. No dismissal, no confinement, no discharge. Back to work as if nothing happened. It has been an emotional roller coaster, but I am beyond grateful to Capt Saylor who won my case for me!!!
