RECENT SUCCESSFUL DEFENSES OF MILITARY FLYING EVALUATION BOARD CASES

Military Defense Lawyer (Former JAG Attorney) News: Recent Successful Military FEB Cases

Recently, we were asked to provide examples of some of our military cases in which we have successfully defended Flying Evaluation Board (FEB) clients.

Our main Google blog has many posts about such cases in the different service branches, and we have defended many of these cases over the decades of our military legal defense practice. While we won’t go back and re-post every blog post on this topic, we did feel it could be helpful to compile some posts about this topic in order to make the point that although the military adverse action system can seem to be very focused on securing wins and ensuring the adverse actions stick, these FEB cases are not hopeless. With strong attorneys to advocate your case, and a solid defense strategy born from decades of FEB experience, successful case outcomes can be achieved.

In this post, we use the term “flying evaluation board,” but these aviation boards go by different names in the different military service branches. In the Air Force and Army, this hearing process is referred to as a Flying Evaluation Board (FEB). In the Navy, this process is referred to as a Field Naval Aviator Evaluation Board (FNAEB). In the Marine Corps, the two pilot boards in this process are the Field Flight Performance Board (FFPB) and the Flight Status Selection Board (FSSB).

On our main blog, you can find the post that lists 11 prior posts describing 13 different military pilots and FEB cases in the different service branches that military defense lawyer Richard V. Stevens has successfully defended in recent years. You can find that blog post here: 13 Recent Successfully Defended Military FEB Cases

For us, these successes represent military members and their families who were saved from the destruction of their military aviation career and possible loss of their military careers as well.

While these Flying Evaluation Board cases were successfully defended, it is important to understand that every aviation case has different facts, and success in previous cases does not guarantee success in any particular future case. No military lawyer or civilian defense lawyer, including those who specialize in military law and in aviation cases, can guarantee the outcome of any military case.
