Lawrence Arthur Willard II

Attorney Willard is an outstanding lawyer!!! I've nothing but great things to say about him. When I reached out, I didn't even know if my Military career was still worth fighting for. I've got over a decade in the Military and was on the verge of being kicked out with an OTH. I was defeated mentally,... by all the Military legal documents I was receiving and the potential penalties. To me, fighting it only delayed the inevitable. I was hesitant to hire another lawyer and go through additional court hearings. However, after consulting with Mr. Willard, he brought in a positive outlook and some much-needed light into my situation. From our initial conversation over the phone, he laid out my options and how he would best tackle different scenarios. He's the real deal!!! Extremely organized and very thorough. He's always had great communication and been easily accessible. He is someone who I wish I reached out to in the beginning, even though we are in different states. Don't let that deter you from hiring someone who will fight for you when you feel like you can't fight for yourself. You will not regret your decision by using Mr. Willard to represent you in your Military Legal matters!!!!

I (SFC/E-7 of 13 years) was faced with an EO 15-6 investigation from an underperforming Soldier. I have not had so much as a negative counseling statement, eligible for promotion to 1SG, flagged for the first time and was devastated at the potential impacts I was facing. Attorney Willard educated me... along the process, was always easily accessible, and truly listened to my concerns. Attorney Willard was quick and aggressive to ensure my rights were protected. The 15-6 was ended without negative action or recourse. I cannot thank him enough for his work!

Willard provided excellent counsel in regards in my case. Being unfamiliar with PBR’s, he was able to walk me through the experience by providing consistent communication and realistic expectations with multiple courses of actions. I appreciated his ability to be professional and personable throughou...t the process. I would recommend him to anyone that finds themselves in need of counsel.

For my administrative separation board where I was ultimately retained, and in all matters prior to, Attorney Lawrence Willard displayed an exceptional level of knowledge, professional expertise, and ability to create and execute an effective defense on my behalf. His confidence and tenacity in the f...ace of board members as well as the government prosecutor were nothing short of excellent, he is absolutely the attorney you want by your side if facing any allegations. Doing the research to find this law office and hire Mr. Willard was the best choice I made in my defense. I can recommend his services with absolutely no reservations.

Attorney Willard went above and beyond! I am truly grateful for his professionalism, care and due-diligence in the handling of my case. He fully exceeded my expectations in helping me through my Board of Inquiry (BOI) process. I was facing separation, having served 18+ years in the Army, and was ...uncertain if I would truly have the opportunity to finish my career. Attorney Willard took the time to prepare my case, while also taking the time to prepare me for what I should expect throughout the process. His attentiveness, willingness to answer my questions, and patience to listen gave me hope in a time of uncertainty. His efforts resulted in an unsubstantiated finding and retain. My family and I will be forever grateful to both Attorney Willard and the Law Office Matthew Barry! I highly recommend Attorney Willard to any service member who requires a highly skilled, caring and truly professional attorney in their corner.
