A military discharge can affect your access to benefits, employment, and reputation. If you have a less-than-honorable discharge, you may be eligible for a discharge upgrade. Crisp and Associates Military Law specializes in helping veterans and service members navigate the process of upgrading their discharge.
If your discharge was the result of an error or personal challenges, an upgrade can help restore your reputation.
Complete the DD-293 form to request a review of your discharge. You can choose a decision based on documents or an in-person hearing.
Your case will be reviewed by the appropriate Discharge Review Board (DRB), which considers factors like your service history, community involvement, and family life.
If needed, you can attend a hearing with the DRB to present your case. You can appeal if your upgrade request is denied.
If the DRB denies your request, you can appeal to the Board for Correction of Military Records (BCMR).
