Hawaii Court Martial Lawyer
Hawaii is no paradise for the service members accused of criminal offenses under the UCMJ. With 4% of the entire Hawaiian population affiliated with the military in some fashion, and with over half a dozen military bases located on the island, the Aloha State has steadily become one of the biggest hotbeds of court-martial activity in the nation. Should you be accused of a criminal offense here, you will face an environment that is as hostile as a war zone:
- The state is home to some of the most brutal and questionably legal sting operations in the country.
- It ranks in the top 10 for states with the largest military presence, making it a primary target for government prosecutors looking to make the biggest impact.
- The conviction rate for all courts-martial that take place in the state remains incredibly high—around 90%.
