Fortis Military Defense, LLC, a new law firm founded by former U.S. Army JAG Corps attorney Sean C. H. Flood, has announced its commitment to providing dedicated legal representation for servicemembers across all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. The firm, based in Atlanta, Georgia, focuses exclusively on military law, handling cases that range from criminal charges and administrative investigations to appeals before Boards for the Correction of Military Records and Discharge Review Boards.
According to Flood, the firm understands the profound impact that legal proceedings can have on a servicemember's career and personal life. “When a servicemember's honor, career, or freedom is on the line, they deserve a defender who knows the system inside and out and will fight with integrity and precision to protect them,” said Flood. With nearly a decade of service in the U.S. Army JAG Corps, including deployments to Afghanistan and Syria, Flood brings experience in advising commanders on the Law of Armed Conflict and Rules of Engagement, as well as extensive courtroom and board room expertise.
Fortis Military Defense offers representation in a wide array of military legal matters. These include military law enforcement investigations, sexual harassment and equal opportunity cases, administrative investigations, separation boards, Article 15 non-judicial punishment proceedings, and discharge review boards. The firm also assists with petitions to Boards for the Correction of Military Records, aiming to remove adverse information based on errors or injustice. Flood’s background includes over five years as a civilian military attorney handling courts-martial, boards, and appeals before launching his own practice.
The firm’s founder has received multiple commendations, including the Bronze Star Medal (Meritorious), Meritorious Service Medal, and three Army Commendation Medals. This combination of combat-zone-tested leadership and legal acumen positions Fortis Military Defense to handle complex cases that other attorneys may decline. The firm represents clients stationed both stateside and overseas, providing confidential consultations and steadfast representation guided by the principle of doing the right thing and fighting with everything they have.
For servicemembers facing investigations or legal challenges, the stakes are high. Fortis Military Defense aims to protect their careers, reputations, and futures. More information can be found at https://fortismilitaryattorneys.com/.
