Gerald Richard Healy

In November of 2020 I reached out and hired Mr. Healy to represent me in a General Court Martial facing a Sexual Assault charge. Throughout that entire time Mr. Healy did everything in his power to prepare and keep me informed on everything. My life was on the line and I trusted him with everything, ...confident that the outcome would be in our favor. Mr. Healy truly cares for and fights for his clients. I saw that firsthand and I would undoubtedly recommend him in a second to anybody, who just like me, is fighting for their life knowing they are innocent. Mr. Healy was not only my attorney, but a friend who fought for me and got me my life back. I’m very thankful to have met Mr. Healy and if anyone is in a situation where they know they want to fight for their life, Mr. Healy is the person for you.

I had the unfortunate experience to become involved in an investigation on a Marine Corps Officer while I was TAD with the Marine Corps. The command investigator called me into his office to make a statement and refused to speak to me with an attorney present. About 7 months later, I was called by my... department head and informed that I needed to go sign a charge sheet and the plan was to take me to XOI in 3 days. I completed the charge sheet and finally was able to see the investigation completed by another command and on the Marine Corps officer and I was informed of the charges. My chain of command told me that it was going to be dismissed and to accept responsibility for the things I could. The day of the XOI, there was an acting XO present. At the end of it, he recommended to send it to NJP. The chain of command told me that the acting XO stated he would have dropped it but he was just acting and did not have the authority to not send it to NJP. As I knew the allegations were not true and I had multiple witnesses who had not been a part of the original investigation, I immediately began looking for a civilian attorney to help with the process. I came across the MJA website and put in a request for a consult. Gerry called that night and spent over an hour on the phone with me discussing the case until that point. Although I think I wanted to believe the chain of command, he pointed out I had reservations about it or else I wouldn’t have called. Gerry was able to point out that the information was presented at XOI and it was still referred to NJP. He listed the options of what the outcomes could be and felt that the charges would never warrant the level of a court martial. As an officer, if I refused NJP, it would be sent to a show cause hearing or board of inquiry to show what I should be allowed to remain in the Navy. Gerry stated if the command was going to drop it at NJP as promised by the chain of command, then the CO would dismiss it when I refused NJP and if it was referred as he thought it would be, then I would have known I made the right choice to refuse NJP. Gerry was right and the CO sent it for an administrative separation for my misconduct, but thanks to Gerry’s advice, I didn’t have substantiated charges as I had not gone to NJP where I would have no rights, It was not referred to court martial. I received the notice right as I was informed that I was on 48 hours notice to deploy in response to the COVID response. Gerry was able to get an extension for the response, and then was able to contact the witness I provided. His expertly written brief was worth everything I had paid for and was written so much better then I could have ever hoped to have written myself. Gerry was able to point out the flaws with the command’s lack of investigation, was able to cite case law to support why the charges were not supported and forced the command to look at my entire career. It was submitted and the day that Gerry followed up with the Command JAG, I was notified that the CO was dropping the charge for dereliction of duty and would issue a NPLOC for the Conduct Unbecoming Charge and a report of no misconduct was routed to PERS. I cannot thank Gerry enough for the work he put into my response and saving my career! I would recommend him to anyone and vouch that he is worth every penny to save your career.

My husband found himself wrapped up in a terrible situation at work being falsely accused of a serious crime that threatened the career he has spent over a decade building as well as his future as we knew it. Facing a Court Martial for something he did not do, we were backed into a corner. Then we ca...me across Gerry's profile, I called and we instantly felt like we were in good hands. He quickly and professionally answered all of our questions and assured us we would be able to get through this. Throughout the entire process he was in aggressive pursuit of the truth and didn't stop until it was heard. He was always willing to discuss matters with us and didn't let any obstacle get in his way. He has such a understanding of military law and his knowledge is unparalleled. He directed us throughout the whole process and has a way of gathering information that leads to the ultimate goal. I am so glad that we found Gerry and recommend him to anyone who needs help. Not only did he find the truth which cleared my husbands name but he saved his career and way of life . He is worth every penny and even worked with us as the legal battle morphed and changed. He made a trip to be present with my husband during a reading that he did not have to be there for because it made my husband more comfortable to have his representation. He truly cares about his clients and will not let you down. Thank you again Gerry, from the bottom of our hearts we are so happy we found you. God Bless.

Gerald Healy represented my son in a very serious court martial case. He walked with us each step of the way from the beginning to the end. He put in numerous hours and left no stone overturned when working on my son's case. During the court martial hearing it was evident that he is a skilled lawy...er and works hard for the families he represents. I highly recommend Mr. Healy if you are ever in need of a great lawyer. It was especially helpful that Mr. Healy has extensive experience with military court proceedings both as a prosecutor and a defense attorney. That was evident in our son's full acquittal.
