Hear From Our Clients

Captain Liam SkinnerUSMC, Defense Counsel, MCAS Miramar
Dr. Jorgensen worked closely with the defense team and ensured we fully understood the nuances of his expert opinion. He was consistently available for consultation and willing to author affidavits supporting his opinions. His expert opinions about the alleged victim's capacity to consent and the medical plausibility of the Govt's version of events was instrumental in challenging the Govt's narrative.
Capt Daina PizarroArea Defense Counsel, Osan AB, ROK
Dr. Jorgensen's expert testimony was pivotal in securing a favorable outcome for our client at a discharge board. He clearly articulated that the service member had been unjustly removed from a substance abuse program before receiving any treatment and that the program manager failed to meet the standard of care. His analysis was so compelling that the board returned a "no basis" finding in just seven minutes. Despite the time difference, Dr. Jorgensen remained engaged and testified until 0200 hours from Colorado to support our case in Korea. His commitment, expertise, and clarity make him an invaluable asset for any military legal team.
