No. The Orders Project will not facilitate or encourage unlawful conduct, which would include disobeying a lawful order. Members of our Armed Forces (including members of the Active Component, Reserve Component, and the National Guard) have a duty to obey lawful orders. If a service member is unsure if an order is lawful, The Orders Project will connect them with a qualified attorney to provide a confidential consultation.
No. The Orders Project connects military personnel with experienced attorneys, in good standing, who will counsel them on their options after a fact-specific review of their situation.
No. The Orders Project only provides assistance to current military personnel as well as retired service members who are ordered back to active duty to face potential adverse actions related to prior conduct while in uniform, or to any actions taken while retired.
Clients are not charged for referrals by The Orders Project to an approved attorney, and consultations will be provided on a pro bono basis.
