Why You Need the Best Civilian Attorney for Your Army Court-Martial
Facing a court-martial in the U.S. Army is one of the most daunting experiences a service member can endure. The stakes are extraordinarily high, with potential penalties that include imprisonment, loss of rank, pay, and benefits, and even a dishonorable discharge. For many, their military career and future are on the line. When accused of serious crimes, such as sexual assault or domestic violence, the need for an experienced, dedicated civilian attorney is crucial. That’s where Golden Law steps in.
At Golden Law, we specialize in providing top-tier court-martial defense representation worldwide. With hundreds of courts-martial tried and a record of exceptional results, including many acquittals, we are the best in the business. Whether you’re stationed at a U.S. Army base in the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, Asia, or anywhere else, we have the experience and resources to defend you.
Experience in Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Cases
One of the most common reasons soldiers seek civilian representation is facing allegations of sexual assault or domestic violence. These cases are often complex, emotionally charged, and fraught with career-ending consequences if not handled correctly. The military justice system, with its unique processes and pressures, can make these accusations feel overwhelming, but having the right attorney makes all the difference.
Our attorneys served as prosecutors, trying some of the nations biggest sexual assault and other serious forms of criminal actions before leaving the service to start the most successful civilian military defense law firm in the nation. Our attorneys have created an exceptional reputation in the nation and are regularly featured on national news networks like Fox News and CNN. Even President Trump has repeatedly recognized the Cherkasky’s as two of the best attorneys in the country.
Golden Law has unmatched experience defending soldiers against these serious charges. Our lead attorney, Andy Cherkasky, is known nationwide for his aggressive and strategic defense of military personnel. Whether the case involves an ex-spouse using the military judicial system as leverage during a divorce or a situation where investigators fail to fully examine both sides of the story, we leave no stone unturned. As one client, a senior Army officer, described his experience with Andy:
“Andy Cherkasky is a phenomenal attorney and litigator. I interviewed eight other defense attorneys, but Andy was the only one who provided a detailed plan and exuded confidence in his strategy. I entrusted Andy with my life, and he delivered. I know with most certainty if I did not obtain Andy as my defense counsel, I would be sitting in Fort Leavenworth serving 4-8 years of confinement.”
