Expression of Gratitude for Legal Services

I wish to express my deepest appreciation to Mr. Tipon for his exceptional legal counsel in my son's recent military justice proceedings. Despite the geographical distance between us (we reside on the mainland while my son is stationed in Oahu), Mr. Tipon provided unwavering support and demonstrat...ed a deep commitment to achieving a successful outcome. Mr. Tipon's professionalism was evident throughout the entire process. His communication was consistently clear and timely, and I always felt comfortable and valued during our interactions. Furthermore, I deeply appreciate the firm's transparent fee structure, which was free from any unexpected or hidden costs. I highly recommend Mr. Tipon and his firm to anyone seeking legal assistance. Their dedication, expertise, and ethical conduct are truly commendable.

Incredible Experience with an Outstanding Attorney

I am writing a review for Noel Tipon, who was the attorney I selected to represent me during my court martial. Being in the Army for over 13 years, I knew from the get-go that in order to receive my fair shake, I had to hire a civilian attorney to represent me; not because Trial Defense Service's at...torneys are not good, but because they are extremely understaffed, overworked, and are not as supplied as the prosecution office. As stated, it would have been non-sequitur to have only utilized military representation. For background, my process lasted roughly 13 months, and Noel Tipon was with me every step, explaining anything and everything I needed him to, in an easy-to-understand way. When I was looking for an attorney, I definitely did my due diligence as attorney fees are not cheap, especially for the charges I was being accused of. After calling roughly 15 different law firms, Noel Tipon's name had been mentioned a few times, so I gave him a ring. From the beginning, he didn't blow smoke up my you know what, but what he did was tell me directly the left and right limits of what could happen, explaining the good and bad of my case, etc. It was direct, but not in a bad way; I had some attorneys say that they could get me off and get the case dismissed, but I wanted realistic expectations, not someone just wanting a paycheck. Noel Tipon even mentioned to me that I should not retain him until charges and everything have been brought forward, but that was the only time I didn't listen to his instructions, as I decided to retain him due to his qualifications, how he presented himself, and how he didn't seem like the typical "money hungry" attorney everyone fears. During the actual trial, members in the gallery described Noel as Johnnie Cochran; his tenacity in the courtroom throughout the entire trial was nothing less than spectacular and thorough. The prosecutor, in my case, had two additional assisting attorneys, and Noel consistently outshined all three of them in every aspect. While I can not say whether or not he can get you the verdict you want, all I know is what occured in my case, which was a verdict of "not guilty" on all charges. In all, my best choice was to retain Noel. If you decide to retain Noel, I would highly recommend to never lying or hiding anything surrounding your case, and to be completely open and honest with him; that is your best shot at having the most positive outcome for your situation. Based on the charges, I can honestly say he not only saved my career, but literally the rest of my life, so I'll always be thankful for him and can rest assured that I 100% made the right choice on an attorney and that you will as well.

Mr. Tipon saved my life.

Mr. Tipon saved my life. I was getting out of the military due to my father having cancer. I was on my way to pick up my DD214 the day that NCIS pulled me in for an interview. I was being accused of sexual assault. At first I lied to NCIS then I told NCIS the truth due to me being scared like any you...ng Marine would be because of the circumstances in 2020. I got put on legal hold and was not allowed to go home to be with my family. I hired Mr. Tipon immediately after my interview. I was being charged with sexual assault and a false official statement. He hit the ground running and he did not stop to prove my innocence. Two years of litigation we finally got our day in court. He proved all of the accusers lies, that NCIS investigation was not a full investigation and he also explained why I lied at first to NCIS. Mr. Tipon did a tremendous job. After all was said and done the members came back with a full Acquittal!! and after being around for two extra years I found out my father is a fighter and I can continue on with my military career. I can not thank Mr. Tipon enough Mr. Tipon’s fee’s are expensive, yes. But he is worth every penny to prove your innocence. He really did save my life. Because of him I wasn’t going to go the brig for something that I didn’t do. If you want somebody to fight for you like you’re his own family, Mr. Tipon is that man. He is a Miracle worker.

Noel Tipon is the attorney you want when the stakes are high

Noel Tipon's dedication to helping me overcome my case was evident from the first time we spoke on the phone. Even though I had called several lawyers that day about my case, Mr. Tipon was the most experienced in military law and quite frankly the most confident that he could win. Noel was profession...al throughout the entire case and he always arrived at court appearances on time and well prepared to dominate the courtroom. Outside of the courtroom, Noel is a very easy-going and forthcoming guy to talk to which can be a very welcoming trait when you are feeling the stress of a Court Martial. Noel successfully had all the charges in my case dropped which was amazing, however, if things hadn't played out well in court he had a litany of alternate courses of action already prepared. Hiring Noel wasn't cheap but it was an investment that I am incredibly happy I made. Looking passed the professional expertise and experience in the practice of law, he seemed to be a good dude who cares about his work and the well-being of his clients. I would highly recommend Noel Tipon to anyone facing serious charges that could adversely impact the rest of their life.

We won!

Bilecki & Tipon, LLLC was wonderful to work with. Mr. Tipon specifically is passionate about his job and does everything in his power to get a successful outcome in your case. Him and all his staff that worked on preparing my case, the case materials used, and hospitality shown to me at their office ...is superb. With them you really feel in good hands and you can sense the professionalism and quality you’re dealing with. I was very pleased with Mr. Tipon and all the preparations he and his staff did to prepare for my case. Mr. Tipon made me feel calm in regards to my case but he doesn’t sugar coat anything and tells it how it is. Even though hiring Mr. Tipon was really expensive, I definitely got what I paid for. I was retained in the military and will be allowed to retire as planned. It definitely was worth spending the money for a quality highly professional attorney. I’m so grateful to Mr. Tipon and his staff and I highly recommend them!
