Quick answer: An Article 15 can become evidence used to support later administrative separation or other career-damaging action.

The Article 15 record may not stay isolated

Future commanders and reviewing authorities may consider prior adverse action.

The response can shape the later record

A well-built response can preserve context, mitigation, and evidence that may matter later.

Early advocacy matters

Waiting until separation begins may make it harder to undo the effect of the earlier record.

Mr. Kamoroff keeps a deliberately small practice focused on GOMORs, Article 15/NJP responses, and investigations. Clients receive direct attorney access after representation begins.

Short suspense?

If your rebuttal, Article 15 election, or investigation response deadline is within 72 hours, call now.

A website form is useful, but urgent military deadlines require faster action. Call 1-86-MILITARY and also submit the consultation form so the basic facts are available.

Review before you respond

Need focused legal judgment before deciding what to do next?

An Urgent Military Case Assessment is a paid limited-scope review for Soldiers, NCOs, and Officers who already have paperwork, evidence, or a short suspense and need a practical assessment of risks, options, and recommended next steps.

More than a consultation. Less than full representation.

The assessment does not include drafting, command contact, law-enforcement contact, negotiation, appearance, submission of materials, or follow-on representation unless separately agreed in writing.

Do not treat a GOMOR or Article 15 like routine paperwork.

A weak response can follow you for years. The earlier you get focused help, the more time there is to analyze the evidence, develop the facts, and present the strongest possible rebuttal or response.
