Why You Should Hire the Germany Based Law Office of Will M. Helixon and NOT a U.S. Based Military Attorney?

The Law Office of Will M. Helixon stands out as the premier choice for military lawyers in Germany, and our commitment is evident in our physical presence. With offices conveniently located in Vilseck, Germany, and Wiesbaden, Germany, we are deeply rooted in the country. Unlike other military law firms that merely claim to have an office in Germany, we go beyond that by having our lawyers permanently reside here. It’s important to note that many U.S.-based lawyers who profess to handle cases in Germany do not actually live here on a full-time basis.

When seeking a military lawyer for representation in Germany, it’s crucial to ask prospective attorneys how often they plan to travel to Germany to handle your case. Inquire about their intentions to come to Germany or Europe to conduct investigations. Most of them rely on local military counsel such as TDS or Area Defense Counsel to carry out these essential tasks. But why settle for a civilian military lawyer who will delegate all the local work to a free detailed military counsel? At the Law Office of Will M. Helixon, we offer a distinct advantage with our team of full-time military lawyers in Germany.

12 advantages to choosing the Law Office of Will M. Helixon

Choose the Law Office of Will M. Helixon with confidence, knowing that our team of dedicated military lawyers in Germany is uniquely positioned to provide you with exceptional legal representation. Here are twelve compelling advantages to choosing the Law Office of Will M. Helixon with their military lawyers in Germany:

When evaluating U.S.-based military lawyers for your case in Germany or Europe, it’s essential to be aware of the potential additional costs associated with international travel. Unlike our competitors, many of whom demand business class tickets and charge separately for travel expenses, the Law Office of Will M. Helixon, with military lawyers in Germany, offers a transparent fee structure that only involves necessary travel within Germany. This means you won’t be burdened with unexpected travel costs that can significantly drive up your legal fees.

In a court-martial case, the military lawyer typically needs to make three crucial appearances: the arraignment, motions hearing, and the actual trial. However, some U.S.-based lawyers may choose to “skip” the arraignment or motions hearing to avoid excessive travel overseas. Instead, they might have a detailed military lawyer cover these proceedings with the client’s approval, or they may avoid filing motions altogether. These decisions can compromise your legal representation and may result in missed opportunities to defend your rights effectively.

Before hiring a U.S.-based military lawyer, it’s important to inquire about their travel plans for your case in Germany. Ask how many times they anticipate traveling to Germany and Europe. These additional international travel expenses can accumulate quickly and add over $10,000 to $15,000 to your originally quoted attorney fees, making it crucial to have a clear understanding of the financial implications.

At the Law Office of Will M. Helixon, we prioritize your convenience and financial well-being. As residents of Germany with offices strategically located in the country, we eliminate the need for international travel costs.

“Simply stated, Will is one of the best trial lawyers I have ever observed in 30 years of military service. As the Deputy Commanding General of the 82nd Airborne Division and later the J33 on the Joint Staff, Will’s ability to handle the toughest cases and seek impartial justice was unmatched. I still rank Will at the very top of all litigators. He is the best our Nation has to offer. If I need assistance, I am going to Will Helixon.”

Latest Client Testimonial

“Great results at trial! Will M. Helixon achieved a positive result securing “no punishment” during the sentencing phase of my court-martial. There was no confinement, no reduction in rank, and no forfeitures at a judge alone special court martial, which resulted from the expertise of Mr. Will Helixon! I was facing charges of an assault, kidnapping, communicating a verbal threat, and provoking speeches. I desperately reached out for some legal guidance from civilian lawyers, and I was referred to Will by mutual friends. The very first phone call I had with Will, even before I hired him, he spent over 45 minutes on the phone with me providing great advice. Whether or not I decided to hire him, he was already giving me his sound guidance. He was very knowledgeable, but what struck me was how down to earth and friendly he was from the very first phone call. Of course, I hired him (other attorneys I called did not seem interested nor gave me the time to explain my situation and demanded first class flights and a crazy fee) and along the way I realized what a great decision that was. I am grateful to say that he was able to get the NO punishment result. All along the way (and these things went on for months) he was unbelievably responsive. Every single time I reached out to him, he called me back or texted within minutes at night or day (I would receive emails from him 2am in the morning – he does not sleep). I emailed or texted him countless times with questions and concerns, and he replied back with me back EVERY SINGLE TIME. If you are looking for a relentless, knowledgeable military attorney, you cannot pick a better attorney. Will is an attorney who will always answer your questions, and you will not believe how friendly he is from the very first time you speak with him. He was also able to assure me each step of the way to be patient. Of course, it’s hard going through something like this, but if you have an experienced attorney like Will Helixon on your team, then the process is smoother and less stressful. Although he is highly accomplished, his fee was very reasonable. No other reason to call anyone else, Will is the best for sure. Hands down!!“
