Testimonial: I Would Not Have The Results Without The Law Firm of David P Sheldon

Mr. Sheldon and his team assisted me with my case for a few years. They were attentive, friendly, and timely from the start to end. Without their patience and knowledge, my family and I may not have had the results we have today. There were a few times where I almost lost faith and Mr. Sheldon and his team restored it. We are grateful and highly recommend him and his team for your case.

The Naval Discharge Review Board Rules Former
Marine’s Discharge was Not Equitable

The Law Offices of David P. Sheldon obtains relief before the Naval Discharge Review Board for a former
Marine wrongfully discharged. In 2019, a Marine was wrongfully discharged with a General (Under Honorable Conditions) characterization for minor act of youth misconduct. Despite her impressive tenure with the Marine Corps, the USMC wrongfully separate her.

In June of 2023, the Law Offices of David P. Sheldon applied on the Marine’s behalf to correct this error and injustice before the Naval Discharge Review Board (NDRB). The firm argued that relief should be granted under guidance provided under the Wilkie Memorandum.

In October 2024, the NDRB ruled that the Marine’s discharge warranted an upgrade. Based upon a
comprehensive application, memorandum with sworn affidavits, along with other extensive supporting
evidence, the NDRB concluded that it was in the interest of justice to upgrade the applicant’s characterization of service to Honorable and can now, if she wants, to reenlist to defend the Nation.
The Marine now joins the ranks of the many service members who have had their rights successfully upheld by the Law Offices of David P. Sheldon. Bravo Zulu to this Marine and Ashleen Williams who spearheaded the effort. Teamwork made it happen.
