In 2008 I was a new airman in the Air Force when I was accused a crime against another airman. I thought this was it and I thought just as soon as I started my life in the Air Force, it was going to be over just like that. I had doubt, I was fearful, and I pretty much didn't know what to do or had no...body to turn to having never dealt with anything remotely close to this in my life. Then thats when I met my military attourney. Prior to the start of the trial, at the time Maj. Lance Wood would be assigned as my senior defense counsel. After meeting Mr. Wood I cant express how much weight he lifted off my shoulders, he was literally there to help me carry the weight of the chaos that I was currently in. We sat down and I was able to actually tell my story of the events that had taken place, then based off of my explanation and the possible evidence that would be presented, he was able to convey across the best possible options for me to take during the trial to have the best outcome for my defense. Then for a couple of weeks he put together a very strong defense and we discussed what would or could happen during court proceedings and as well as what I should do to correctly respond to prosecution questioning in the event I would have to take the witness stand. With the defense that Mr. Wood was able to put together for me, it assured me that I had a chance of a successful trial. During the trial Mr. Wood was eager and very much able to argue against prosecuting evidence and statements and because of that there was undoubtedly never an obvious point that he never had control of the court room. Because of the excellent defense produced by Mr. Wood, the jury deliberated for no less than one hour and returned with a verdict of not guilty. Since the trial I have been able to continue on to have a very successful military career to support the amazing family that I now have.  Over all Mr. Wood conducted himself in a manner that showed great respect, professionalism, and attention to detail for his profession and I would strongly recommend his services to anybody who requires a criminal defense lawyer. He is a tremendous person of character and I am forever grateful for the time and effort that he put into my case.

My expericence was over whelming.I met Lance when i was facing an agg. assult with a deadly wepon and was looking at 28 years with the max sentence.And he took on my case load after my case was already under way.From the beging Lance was ready to listen to my side of the story.At first Lance asked m...e how I wanted to proceed with my case.I was already fruastrated with others unwillingness to listen to my side of the story.That i sarcasticly answered.Why dont I tell you what happen and you tell me how we can proceed with this.I was really amazed that he actually heard my every word and at the end of my story Lance gave me so many alternitives on how to proceed with my case..And togetther we both came up with the best way to fight my case.Through my whole case Lance allowed me to work along him in every aspect of my case.Not once did he ever keep me and my family in the dark about what was going on in my case.he explained in detail to me and my family what we did not understand.Lance did an outstanding job representing me.He put together a great team to help in my defence.Whom i am also greatful to. My trial lasted three days.I was found not guilty on self defence.Needless to say. I am now back where I belong.Along side my family.Days after Lance cotinued to show support.By following up to see how i was readjusting to being back with my family.And to assure me that if there where any other issues or questions that he could help with Legally he would more then happy to help or give advise.Thank You Lance for all you did for me.

I was facing 12 felony charges when I first met Lance. Back then he was a Major in the United States Air Force and I was a Noncommissionned Officer. He did not sugarcoat anything, explained very clearly what my chances were, and what I should realistically count on. Lance dedicated an entire week ...to preparation for my trial. During that time I got to know him pretty well. The trial lasted four full days, and I can honestly say that we were a step ahead of the game the whole time. Every curve ball that was thrown at us was anticipated due to his prior experience with prosecution. We have won the case on all charges and I am still serving in the military. I have been promoted and decorated several times since my trial and every time there is anything positive in my life I always think of Lance, because if it wasn't for his care and effort my life could have gone in a different direction.
