Will the Military Automatically Upgrade My Discharge?
One of the most common urban legends throughout the military is that a negative service characterization or discharge will be upgraded after six months. Throughout the last decade and a half that I have been practicing military law, I have heard this idea repeated many times.
Can an Attorney Help with my Military Discharge Upgrade?
Yes. An attorney gives you an advantage in gaining your military discharge upgrade. It is vital to have an attorney knowledgeable in the standards and formalities of the various review board agencies. An attorney with knowledge of military law can give you an advantage over those applicants attempting to go it alone.
