Based on experience, most commanders end up being investigated simply due to the appropriate exercise of their command authority. Remember, even in administrative investigations, service members are entitled to obtain the advice of legal counsel pursuant to Article 31, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). Military members cannot be punished for exercising those rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For any military member who is (or thinks they might be soon) read their rights under Article 31, or believes they might be under investigation (including for a CDI, AR 15-6, EO, IG, mishap, or anything similar), <strong>should seek legal advice from an <a href=\"https:\/\/veritasmilitarylaw.com\/staging\/9222\/joshua-tolin-trial-attorney\">experienced military defense attorney<\/a> as soon as possible.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Veritas Military Law can help review the facts, strategize, and prepare the best possible defense for you, so that you can respond appropriately and move forward with your military career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-black-color has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/veritasmilitarylaw.com\/staging\/9222\/contact-veritas-military-law\" style=\"border-radius:0px\">Don&#8217;t Hesitate &#8211; Contact Veritas Military Law Now!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sample Successes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover\" style=\"min-height:155px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"648\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-588\" alt=\"U.S. Army Reserve Soldiers from the 341st Military Police Company, of Mountain View, California, receive training on explosive ordnance disposal conducted by the 630th Ordnance Company in Eskan Village, Saudi Arabia, on Oct. 26, 2017.
