With 18 yrs of service I was going to a show/cause hearing with the possibility of ending my career and losing my retirement. I contacted Mr. McLain, provided him the details, and he was up front and straight forward with me about my situation. After thinking it over, I hired Mr. McLain to defend me.... Mr. McLain aggressively handled my case, provided outstanding guidance and kept me informed. Always available whenever I needed to talk or had questions. Mr. McLain was straightforward in what he needed and expected of me. He also ensured that I was taken care of when I had to testify as part of an Article 32 hearing for former staff members. I was retained in the Marine Corps and now I am able to continue my career. Hiring Mr. McLain was the best decision I have made and was the best money I have ever spent. Unlike many attorneys, If you hire Mr. McLain, Mr. McLain handles your case. Not another attorney that works at his office. OUTSTANDING!!!

Because of my foreign birth, my Air Force career seemed unjustly doomed. Mr. McLain could not possibly have been more understanding, knowledgeable and proffessional. He took the facts of my case, and because he knew exactly how to express exactly what needed to be expressed, my case didn't even go to... DOHA. Mr. McLain really is, based on my own personal experience, a true proffessional, an ace at his job (aside from apparently honest and ethical human being). There wasn't a question or concern that I had, during an entire year, that wasn't competently addressed, at times long past normal business hours. I highly, highly recommend Mr. McLain and the professionals he chooses for his team.

Patrick did an outstanding job with my formal Physical Evaluations Board for the Air Force. He kept me on task with what was needed and is a great taskmaster. He was professional and extremely ethical, which is a great thing when it comes to a lawyer. He was successfully able to argue for a full r...etirement for me. I can't say enough about what an outstanding lawyer Patrick McLain is. Choose him and you can't go wrong.

As a result of recent DOD tightening of security and my foreign background DOD was looking to revoke and deny my eligibility for an industrial security clearance. After a good amount of research I found the best and hired Mr. McLain to represent my case vs. DOHA. My ratings reflect my experience and... the outcome of this case with having Mr. McLain on my side. I would highly recommend getting the best on your side if the outcome is important to you.
