Brilliant lawyer! I couldn't be more Happy

19.5 years of service and my command team tried taking my E7 stripe. I higher Mr. Carpenter to represent me in the court martial. He was absolutely fantastic and his experience really shows. I had a full acquittal on all charges! His skills in the court room were worth every penny. I cannot sa...y enough good things about him. I am truly grateful!

Glad the Court-martial panel "Fully Acquitted" you so quickly. This was an especially sweet win.

Retained after Board of Inquiry due to DUI in Germany!

I was recommended by my wife to seek Mr. Carpenter as our attorney after receiving my DUI. Due to this misconduct, a board of inquiry was initiated. He worked hard, very personal, and did not waist anytime when we were together building our case. He definitely exceeded my expectation. When your de...aling with the utmost difficult situation with many odds against you, hiring an experienced attorney will give you a piece of mind even if it’s for a couple hours out of the day. With mixed emotions and so many block roads with a DUI case it’s hard to predict what the outcome maybe. This is why they say you get what you paid for and to be honest I believe whole heartedly it help save my career. With his experience and expertise, the court process seems more smooth sailing compared to the regular TDS appointed representative. Thank you Mr. Carpenter! My family and I appreciate you for your passion in fighting for service members, we cannot thank you enough for what you have done for us. Your passion and resilience is truly a gift from God! Highly recommended! He travels from Germany to the States which is a plus!!! God bless everyone that is currently reading this. We hope you get through these difficult times as we did with Mr. Stephen Carpenter’s help.

Stephen Carpenter Military Law Review

For one, I was nervous to pursue legal action. While I knew my case was severe. Fortunately, you made it clear from the jump that this case was able to be successful. However, your professionalism and courtesy made me feel comfortable about my case. You were honest and straight forward when disc...ussing my case in details and investigated every document, exchange, and paper trail to find the evidence we needed. I am beyond grateful to you and I hope I shouldn’t have to, but in the future, I will recommend your professionalism services to anyone who needs an experience military lawyer.

It took awhile, but we got what we set out for. Congrats on the "Honorable" characterization! I am sure you will put it to good Post-911 GI Bill use.

This Attorney Cares!

After tirelessly searching through the web for a Lawyer, I found Mr. Carpenter. I was facing serious felony charges, career in the Military and the end of everything I worked for. I can honestly say this was the worst time of my life. I was in my lowest time of my life, if there is lower than that do...n't want to know it. Mr. Carpenter asked me to e-mail him the OSI report. In the very short period I spoke to him he already read the over sixty pages of report . In the following couple days he was already very familiar with my case and he clearly articulated what was happening, the strength/weakness of my case, what could happen, and what he he was going to do. Mr. Carpenter is an outstanding attorney, a knowledgeable military expert, form of support and guidance and trusted confidant. I went through two years very stressful time of my life and every time I called Mr. Carpenter was there to listen. I don't even know if this man ever sleeps. I can honestly say that before Mr. Carpenter, I had no trust in attorneys. After talking to Mr. Carpenter, I know there are amazing attorneys that fight for their clients and also care. Life is great, I'm free man now and have the option to stay in or get out when my time is over. Hire him if you’re being accused of something that you did not do.

OTH Separation

I contacted Stephen when my command presented me with an article 15 and OTH separation. As anyone who has had to contest their command would say, sometimes it could feel hopeless when they hold all of the cards. Thankfully, Stephen will not only give you hope that you can win, but can make it happen.... My command pinned me with OTH separation, and not only did Stephen negate that, I left there with a sense of relief and victory knowing that we won. Even with Covid going on Stephen was always prompt and available when I needed him, and if I'm ever in a tight spot again he will be my first call. Look no further, this is your guy.
