Entry pricingInvestigation-stage representation generally starts at $1,000
Quick answer: When CID, MPs, command investigators, or an investigating officer requests information, the first priority is to understand your rights, preserve evidence, and avoid creating statements or digital evidence that make the case harder to defend.
The decisions that matter
Use the response to solve the actual problem in front of the command.
Preserve evidence
Secure messages, timelines, documents, and witness information without altering or destroying potential evidence.
Anticipate command action
Treat the investigation as potential groundwork for a GOMOR, Article 15, evaluation, separation, or court-martial theory.

Practical questions
Answers before you respond.
What should I say if investigators want to question me?
You may have important rights, including the right to remain silent and request counsel. Get case-specific advice and stop discussing the allegations after invoking rights.
Should I give investigators my phone passcode?
Do not provide passcodes, unlock devices, or consent to searches without legal advice about the request and your rights.
Can my command order a written statement?
Rights issues can arise when a statement may be self-incriminating. Obtain legal advice before writing or signing a statement about suspected misconduct.
Can an investigation lead to a GOMOR or Article 15?
Yes. Investigation findings and statements frequently become the basis for GOMORs, Article 15s, evaluations, separation, or officer elimination.
