Mr. Faulkner first presented himself in a calm collected manner, and he continued to conduct business in that manner.

He took our money and never did ANYTHING for it. Nothing at all and definitely not what he promised he would do. I don't recommend
I was so disappointed to read this review, and I am so sorry that you had a negative experience with me. After leaving the Army in 2016 and opening my own practice, I have never received a negative review. I have reached out to my client (and do so again now) to please contact me directly so that we can discuss the case. I will do anything in my power to make this right.
"I have known Wade Faulkner for a few years now; primarily as a military judge in the Army. Colonel Faulkner was respected for his thorough knowledge, his thoughtful jurisprudence, and his fairness on the bench. Anyone who hires Wade will get a very learned, strong advocate, and you can be assured of the best possible results. I highly recommend his work to you. Semper Fi, Patrick McLain"
"I had the pleasure of practicing before then-Judge Faulkner as a defense counsel while in the Service. Mr. Faulkner has an excellent grasp of military law - better than most - and has the ability to distill complex issues into concise, practical, and spot-on legal analysis."
"When a complex criminal law matter arises, Wade Faulkner is the first person I reach out to for assistance. Wade was a Judge and Prosecutor, now as a Defense Attorney he sees cases from all angles. He is a serious lawyer for serious cases."
"Mr. Faulkner was professional, courteous, and prompt in all aspects of the case that we had together. He exceeded his stellar reputation. I endorse and recommend him without reservation."
"Wade is an outstanding lawyer. His prior active duty service as a military judge puts him head and shoulders above his peers in knowledge of military law. Wade is a zealous and tough advocate for his clients. I highly recommend and endorse Wade."
"I have known Wade for over 25 years. When he told me he decided to go to law school, I knew the legal profession was about to inherit a very special colleague. My prediction came true. With Wade's military and professional background, anyone who needs his services will surely have a most skilled and powerful advocate in their corner."
"As I former military prosecutor, I faced Wade in a number of UCMJ matters and found him to be a very capable defense lawyer with a strong courtroom presence. He is an ethical hardworking trial lawyer, and I endorse him without hesitation."
