Don C. King, founder of King Military Law, boasts nearly thirty years of military experience, with twenty-four years dedicated to military law. His journey began as an enlisted Marine, where he served in security roles at U.S. Embassies and supported high-level officials as part of Secret Service protective details. Upon completion of his service, he leveraged the GI Bill to earn his degrees in Oregon. In 1996, Don returned as a Navy Judge Advocate, where he quickly established himself as an accomplished trial attorney, securing an acquittal in a murder case shortly after starting his military legal career.
Over the years, Don has held significant positions that encompass military criminal law, including leadership roles as both a senior prosecutor and defense counsel. His influence extends to training fellow attorneys in the Navy’s Defense Counsel Assistance Program. Renowned for his dedication and legal skills, Don remains active in his community, volunteering for veteran support programs and serving as a judge in mock trial competitions. Now retired, he offers his extensive legal counsel to those in need, continuing to make a positive impact through his work.

Very helpful and knowledgeable with military and immigatrion cases
If you have any questions about security clearances and the process don't hesitate to call Don. I was able to get a free consultation from Don that relieved my soul. He explained how my Immigration status ties to others' security clearance process, and what the department of defense would want to kno...
Thanks for the review! So glad we could answer your security clearance questions during a free consultation. However, truth be told, we're not really immigration law experts. We do focus on security clearance matters and are versed in how immigration status will impact security clearances, but if you need an immigration lawyer, we wouldn't be your best bet. But thanks so much for taking the time! Don
