The Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) encompasses a comprehensive array of legal statutes and procedures.

Your Justice Is Our Priority

The UCMJ Expert provides representation for clients facing adverse administrative actions under UCMJ Article 15. This includes challenges to negative performance evaluations, officer evaluation reports, denial or revocation of promotions, letters of reprimand, salary deductions, and potential discharges.

UCMJ Article 15 allows commanders to impose “nonjudicial” punishment without the need for a trial. Similar to a court-martial, penalties under Article 15 can be applied regardless of when or where the alleged violation occurred – even if you were off duty and not in uniform.

You have the option to “decline” the penalties under Article 15. Should you choose to do so, your commander has several pathways. They may choose to dismiss the allegations, issue a warning, or resort to initiating a court-martial or administrative discharge proceedings.

If you receive notification of an Article 15 action, it’s crucial to reach out to UCMJ Expert immediately. Navigating Article 15 can be complex, and a court-martial linked to an Article 15 action may result in harsher consequences than the original nonjudicial punishment.
