How Military Trials Are Won

In this episode of Off the Record, I break down the strategies that separate winning defenses from losing ones. Military trials are battles, and if you don’t have an attorney who knows how to fight, you’re already at a disadvantage. We’re covering:

  • Why storytelling, not legal jargon, wins military trials
  • How prosecutors build their case—and how a great defense attorney tears it apart
  • The real reason cross-examination is the most important part of a trial
  • How to flip the government’s strongest evidence against them
  • Why hiring the right military defense attorney can make or break your case

Here’s the truth: The second you walk into a courtroom as the accused, you’re **already at a disadvantage**. The prosecution doesn’t have to be creative—they just check legal boxes and assume the jury will trust them. **Your defense team has to be better.**

If your attorney can’t tell a compelling story, doesn’t know how to expose the government’s weak spots, or thinks they can save you with a closing argument alone, you’re in trouble.

This is how military trials are actually won.
