YOU DEFENDED OUR COUNTRY; LET US DO THE SAME FOR YOU
At Crisp and Associates Military Law, we fight for our clients. We are not the type of firm that will tell you to simply “plea out” and take a deal; we aggressively pursue the best possible resolution for every client’s situation. Each case we take on receives personalized attention, and we make our decisions based solely on the best interests of our clients.
Our attorneys have handled every military law matter, from simple non-judicial punishment to defending service members who appeared on the front pages of newspapers and magazines worldwide for court-martial proceedings. They have served at every level of the chain of command, from a platoon, ship, and squadron to the Office of the Secretary of Defense.
Court-martial cases are very serious, and without the guidance of an experienced military defense attorney, you could face very severe penalties.
Sexual assault cases have recently gained significant attention in the media as well as our Congress, and commanding officers do not take accusations of sex-related crimes lightly.
Violent crimes are some of the most aggressively prosecuted offenses. You need a skilled military attorney or you could incur severe penalties if convicted.
Without the representation of an attorney, you could be facing a life sentence if convicted for a violent crime such as homicide by a Court-Martial.
Each branch of the military offers administrative remedies to correct a service member’s military records.
If a Soldier has been denied continued service by the QMP process, he or she has the option to appeal the decision and request retention in the Army.
WHEN IT'S TIME FOR THE BIG GUNS
IT’S TIME FOR CRISP AND ASSOCIATES MILITARY LAW
THE SYSTEM COMES FAST. YOUR DEFENSE SHOULD COME FASTER.
When you’re being investigated or charged under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, everything moves fast—until your defense does. That’s why you need a military defense attorney who’s already ahead of it. At Crisp and Associates, we’ve stood where you’re standing. Our military lawyers have fought from inside the system and from across the aisle—and we don’t back down.
EXPERIENCE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE COURTROOM
Our firm is led by Jonathan W. Crisp, a former Army JAG prosecutor who’s spent his career in trial. He and our team—including attorneys Donald Gordon, Adam Leydig, Benjamin Young, Jacob Gillette, and Melissa Linebaugh—bring the kind of military courtroom experience you can’t fake. We know the structure, the pressure, and the people behind the process. You need a military attorney who doesn’t just understand the law—you need one who understands command.
MILITARY LAWYER. STRATEGIST. ADVOCATE.
We’re not just here to argue statutes. We’re here to keep your name, your rank, and your career intact. A military lawyer isn’t simply someone who stands next to you—they stand up for you, in the face of a system that rarely apologizes. From Article 15s and discharge boards to full-blown felony court-martials, we treat every detail like it matters—because it does.
YOUR LEGAL CHALLENGE ISN’T JUST LEGAL. IT’S PERSONAL.
You’ve worked too hard to let one accusation, one paperwork slip, or one wrong assumption destroy everything. We’ve defended service members at every level, from new privates to full-bird colonels, across every branch. As your military defense attorney, we prepare fast, hit hard, and make your side impossible to ignore.
MILITARY DEFENSE ATTORNEYS WHO WIN QUIET WARS, TOO
Not every battle ends in a courtroom. Maybe you’re flagged for separation. Maybe it’s a GOMOR, a denied security clearance, or a QMP board that blindsides you mid-career. We’ve reversed separations, reopened denied appeals, and salvaged reputations through strategy and timing. You don’t always need a trial—you just need the right attorney to step in early.
THE PEOPLE WHO PROTECT YOU HAVE PROTECTED OTHERS
Our lawyers have represented service members at Fort Bragg, Pendleton, Benning, Hood, and beyond. From the U.S. to OCONUS assignments in Korea, Germany, and Japan—we go where the fight is. Whether it’s Article 32 hearings, board defense, or high-profile military sex crime accusations, we show up ready. That’s what it means to hire a military defense attorney who’s done it before.
WE DON’T JUST CLAIM RESULTS—WE LIVE THEM
