Military Dishonorable Discharge Reversed to Honorable Discharge

September 13, 2013 By Paul Wallin

“I received an OTHER THAN HONORABLE DISCHARGE from the Military as a result of a positive urinalysis while I was a reservist. This category of discharge effected my ability to get work and generally acted as a black mark on my record. As a result I hired the law offices of Wallin & Klarich who have a military attorney on staff. Wallin & Klarich proved to be very knowledgeable regarding requesting an upgrade in my discharge categorization. They filed the appropriate forms and submitted evidence with the forms to strengthen my case for an upgrade. I then appeared in front of a Discharge Review Board and before saying a word the board members informed me that based on the papers I submitted they were leaning very heavily toward granting my upgrade. A few weeds later I received the good news that my discharge was upgraded to HONORABLE DISCHARGE. Now I intend to sue the military for back wages. I am very grateful to the attorneys of Wallin & Klarich and would highly recommend them for any military legal matter.”
