Military Disciplinary Proceedings

Miami Court Martial Proceeding Attorney

Private, civilian Florida lawyers protecting the rights of members of the military charged with crimes

The penalties for a criminal conviction in a military court are little different from those handed down by a civilian judge. Military courts in the United States, however, have an entirely different code of justice, with different rules for procedure, evidence and discovery, requiring a civilian attorney who understands the military system and who will not confuse it with the civilian counterpart. After more than thirty years of criminal defense practice in South Florida, the Miami law firm of Jeff Weiner & Mycki Ratzan has protected the rights of service men and women from all branches of the military charged with serious crimes:

Army / Navy / Air Force / Marines / Coast Guard

Court Martial – Dishonorable Discharge / AWOL / Drug Charges / Psychiatric Discharge / Domestic Violence / Assault – Theft – Sex Crimes / All Felony and Misdemeanor Crimes / Appeals / Veteran’s Administration (VA) Issues

What about military representation?

You could utilize a military attorney to represent your interests but it is important to remember that these lawyers are typically inexperienced with serious criminal defense matters. As members of the armed forces hierarchy, they may provide a less than vigorous defense due to their subservient position to superior officers who are trying the case.

If you are facing a military disciplinary proceeding or criminal charges within the military court system, consider utilizing a private attorney from the law offices of Jeff Weiner & Mycki Ratzan who knows the military courts but is not part of it. Our firm is respected by all branches of the United States military and has lectured on legal topics to US Navy personnel and others. In the event that we are unable to provide representation in your individual case, we can make a referral to trusted colleagues nationwide able to address your specific legal needs.
