Why Retain a Civilian Military Defense Attorney? 

When accused of a crime, it is very common to choose representation by an appointed military lawyer. The reasons for doing so are simple – The attorney is provided free of charge and you believe the attorney should know how the military justice system works; however, appointed military attorneys working within the military's criminal justice system are often inexperienced and are juggling unmanageable caseloads, which prevents them from giving your case the full and quality attention it needs and deserves. These same appointed attorneys need to answer to their military supervisors.

If you are accused of a crime as a military member, you need to seek the immediate assistance of Owens & Kurz, LLC. We answer to you. As experienced civilian military criminal defense lawyers, your results are our top priority.
