The Legal Team on Your Side

When it's time
for the big guns

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.

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.

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 Campbell Brantley 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
