San Diego Military Criminal Defense Lawyer

Defending Military Personnel Accused of State Crimes in California

If you are a military servicemember, accusations involving state criminal charges can drastically affect your personal life and military career. Civilian penalties could mean a jail or prison sentence in addition to steep fines. Even if you aren’t charged for a military crime, a conviction could force you to face military consequences.

Avoiding these outcomes is possible with help from Kern Law, APC. I have nearly 20 years of experience in criminal defense law, and I can help military personnel fight charges for state crimes. If you are accused of driving under the influence (DUI), domestic violence, violating a restraining order, or another California state law, I can offer experienced legal guidance and support for your defense.

I also offer potential clients a free case evaluation. During this meeting, you can learn more about your legal situation and how I can help with your state crime charges. If you’re looking for a military criminal defense lawyer in San Diego, I can provide the legal assistance you require.

Helping Military Servicemember Fight Civilian Criminal Charges

The military has its own criminal justice system subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice, which is separate from the civilian criminal justice system subject to the California Penal Code. You can face charges for the same offense in both systems, but they are handled differently and can result in different consequences if you’re convicted.

When you are facing charges for a California Penal Code violation, that’s where I can help. Kern Law, APC proudly represents military servicemembers from all branches and bases located throughout Southern California.
