Lawrence Arthur Willard II

Mr. Willard assisted me with an Involuntary Separation Board 2 years after receiving a GOMOR for a property situation that occurred 4 years previously as a Commander in which I self-reported on. He was very easy to work with and available whenever I needed to reach out with questions. He helped to m...ake the process much smoother than when I previously had been working with a TDS-appointed attorney. He was recommended to me by someone else who had worked with him and I will gladly recommend Mr. Willard to anyone else who needs assistance in the military concerning GOMORs and Separations. The outcome of my board was favorable and the board members voted to retain me in the military. This would not have been possible without Mr. Willard’s assistance.

Attorney Willard is an aggressive, well-read, and incredibly effective defense lawyer. I was accused of sexual harassment and he was flexible, knowledgeable, and embodies a consummate professional. He prepared my written statement and appeal and I could not be more grateful. He is dependable, support...ive, and I will forever be grateful for what he provided me in a very difficult time. Thank you Attorney Willard!

Mr. Willard was immediately in my corner, fighting for me against a very toxic command that labeled me guilty of harassment before the investigation was even done. I was flagged and under investigation for 15—yes, that's right—15 months. I was treated terribly by my Battalion Command, thrown aside as... rubbish, while the person who falsely accused me was praised and promoted. Mr. Willard was hired when I was notified I was going to a separation board. After 12 years of active service, they were going to attempt to separate me from the Army on an OTH discharge. Without Mr. Willard, this would have definitely happened. He immediately gives you his 110% effort in providing the absolute best counsel possible, preparing you for interviews, cross-examination, board proceedings, the whole shebang. Because of Mr. Willard, my board findings were unsubstantiated, and I was retained without rehabilitation. He helped show the truth of the actual incident

After being told I was facing a 15-6 investigation for some false allegations that was detrimental to my career, I took to the internet. It had to be a stroke of luck to find Mr. Willard. I sent him an email and I received an immediate response from him. After speaking with him, I knew I had found ...the right person to represent me. He was clear and concise about each step of this investigation. He set realistic expectations and did not give me any false hope. His years of service as a JAG and civilian lawyer was clearly evident during this ordeal. My career was on the line but with Mr. Willard representation, all charges were dismissed. I am glad I did not listen to my command and go to a Trial Defense Lawyer to represent me because they are really not there for us. Mr. Willard provided me with top notch representation, and so with that said I highly recommend him. If you are looking for an attorney to represent you, look no further. Mr. Willard is here for you. Because of him I have my life back, and I can move on and continue doing great things in the military. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you, Mr. Willard.

If you find yourself searching for a defense attorney to represent you in a military case, search no further; you’ve come to the right place here with Mr. Lawrence Willard II. You absolutely cannot go wrong in retaining him. I know exactly what you are thinking and exactly what you are going through ...because I was just there and felt bombarded with questions and uncertainty. You’ve given numerous years of service to your country but if you are facing criminal investigation/charges, you are about to see a side of the US military that very few people have seen and the odds will be severely stacked against you. The military judicial system is in place to protect the government and not you as the service member so for that alone, you absolutely NEED a solid defense team that has a breadth of experience, competence, knowledge, and tenacity, all of which you will find with Mr. Willard. Once I was notified of an OSI investigation being opened on me for false allegations, I immediately began searching for an attorney who would fight for my innocence which led me to Lawrence. He reached out to me the same day and began to put my mind at ease knowing he would be in my corner bringing his years of experience both as JAG and as civilian counsel in UCMJ cases. Throughout the entire two years of my proceedings, Mr. Willard never missed a beat and was on top of everything at each and every turn. He was clear and concise about each step and always made sure to explain everything that was happening and also gave realistic expectations for what was next to come in anticipation of the government’s next move(s). You can put your faith and trust in Mr. Willard as he proved to me that he was very experienced and knowledgeable in these cases, and know they UCMJ inside and out. The detail and thoroughness that Mr. Willard puts into his work is impressive and unmatched. The prosecution team would have been put to shame with what our defense team was bringing to the fight. Luckily in my case, things were resolved before trial but I am more than confident that we would have obtained a victory nonetheless even if we had gone to trail. I was facing life in prison due to the actions of a vindictive former spouse but I am here today thanks to Lawrence. My family and I are extremely grateful for Mr. Willard’s help and representation and he was worth every penny! Do yourself a favor and contact Mr. Willard to start laying the groundwork for your defense. The peace of mind alone will be worth it.
