Client Testimonials
★★★★★
Citizen Soldier Law was tremendous for my family. After significant challenges and battles in physical separation ratings, Mr. Roughneen and his team was able to advocate for us, align us with professionals, and help us get the resources we needed to create a compelling and winning case for ourselves.
I'm extremely appreciative for the time they put in, how thorough they were in their review and completion of documents to support my case, and how responsive and timely their team was. All my cares, concerns, and questions were considered.
Their support in a resolution have created a vibrant future for my family, for which I will always be thankful. They were also mindful with regards to costs, time, and unique challenges of my case. I worked especially alongside team members Amy Baudoin, Robert Weisneck, Danielle Keens, Pete Vanderland, Anthony Sciaraffa, and Thomas Roughneen. Thank you to all of them.

As the parent of a service member who faced potentially career-ending false accusations during basic training, I cannot overstate my deep appreciation for the exceptional legal representation provided by Citizen Soldier Law. Our family was suddenly confronted with the complex and intimidating military justice system, and this firm proved to be the unwavering and skilled advocate we desperately needed during one of the most challenging times in our lives.
From the outset, the attorneys at Citizen Soldier Law--especially Thomas and Robert--demonstrated a comprehensive understanding of both the legal intricacies and the unique culture of the armed forces. Their strategic guidance, legal acumen, and sincere commitment to our son's defense brought much-needed clarity and calm during an incredibly stressful period.
The military justice system is not only procedurally complex but also emotionally taxing, especially for families unfamiliar with its processes. Citizen Soldier Law's ability to expertly navigate this system with professionalism, empathy, and diligence gave us hope when we needed it most. Their advocacy extended beyond legal representation--they became a source of strength, ensuring that our son's rights were protected and that justice, not assumption or bias, prevailed.
For any service member or military family facing legal challenges, I wholeheartedly and without hesitation recommend Citizen Soldier Law. Their dedication, expertise, and integrity make them a powerful ally when a military career and personal reputation are at stake.
To Thomas, Robert, and the entire team at Citizen Soldier Law: thank you. Your relentless pursuit of justice, your professionalism, and your compassion not only led to a just outcome but also restored our faith in the system. You made sure that truth triumphed over falsehood, and for that, we are forever grateful.
If you find yourself in a similarly difficult position, know this: you do not have to face the military justice system alone. Citizen Soldier Law has the experience, resolve, and proven results to stand by you every step of the way.
Would I recommend them to others? Absolutely--and without hesitation.

If you are looking for a firm that deals with anything on a military installation, look no further. Instead of dealing with one person I was handed a team of individuals with a diverse background. From the beginning they tackled everything with a level of attention to detail like I've never seen before. There was always constant communication with the team, they knew every aspect of the case from the very beginning, and had a plan outlined from the first meeting. Their knowledge, experience, guidance, and advice lead to a positive outcome which I was more than happy with.

This firm is unbelievable! It was recommended to me when I had an issue arise regarding my 100% VA service connection.
Mr. Roughneen, Ms. Keens, and Mr. Weisneck were very knowledgeable and kind in regards to my situation. They jumped into the ring with VA immediately and before I knew it, my issue was resolved.
Then after I began my relationship with the firm for compensation, a terrible legal situation arose due to my disability. The compassion shown by Mr. Roughneen and his associates in regards to veteran mental health was a breath of fresh air. They took my charges head on and everything they said would be done was. I am still in awe of their legal prowess.
Highly recommended for anyone dealing with the VA or other legal issues.
