I was wrongly accused under articles 120, 128b, and 130, and the legal battle was an incredibly draining experience. Throughout the two-and-a-half-year ordeal, Michael and Alexandra displayed unmatched professionalism, deep legal expertise, and genuine care for my case. Michael's collaboration with my ADC was seamless, and he ensured I fully understood every step. His closing argument during the trial was masterful, exposing flaws in the prosecution’s case and solidifying my trust in their exceptional abilities. Thanks to their unwavering dedication, justice prevailed, and my family and I can finally feel at peace. If you need a powerhouse defense team, they are the ones to trust.

My husband was falsely accused, and it was an incredibly long and difficult process for our family. Throughout everything, Michael was supportive, compassionate, and always available to answer any questions or concerns we had. He truly cares about his clients and their families, and he fights hard for them every step of the way. Thanks to his dedication and hard work, my husband received a fully acquitted verdict, and we are beyond grateful. There are honestly no words that can fully express how thankful we are for everything this firm has done for our family. We can finally focus on bigger and better things, and that peace means everything to us. We highly recommend Michael and his firm to anyone in need of a UCMJ defense lawyer.

I can’t say enough about the attorneys at Gonzalez & Waddington. From the very beginning, they were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient in guiding me through every step of a complicated and stressful process. They took the time to explain everything clearly, making sure I understood my options and what to expect at each stage. What truly stood out was their dedication and attention to detail. It was clear they were fully invested in my case, putting in the time and effort needed to build a strong and thorough defense.

I will always be grateful to Michael Waddington for standing by my husband when we needed it the most. As his wife, it was an incredibly stressful and emotional time for our family, but Michael gave us a sense of calm and reassurance from the very beginning. He didn’t just treat us like another case he truly cared. He listened, he understood, and he fought for my husband with dedication and heart. Knowing that someone so committed and knowledgeable was on our side made all the difference. Because of Michael, we felt supported, protected, and never alone during such a difficult moment in our lives. I can’t thank him enough, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who needs someone they can truly trust. Also due to his professionalism and dedication to his craft my oldest son wants to now be a lawyer.

I’ve served honorably in the United States Air Force for 26 years, and suddenly found myself facing one of the most difficult moments of my life wrongfully accused of domestic violence against my adult daughter and facing up to 20 years in prison. Hiring Michael Waddington was the best decision I could have made. From day one, he was professional, direct, and genuinely invested in my case. When I first contacted the firm, they took the time to explain my options without immediately asking for payment, which spoke volumes about their integrity and commitment. Once retained, Michael was relentless. He worked seamlessly alongside my ADC and stayed fully engaged every step of the way. When the trial began, he methodically dismantled the prosecution’s case and exposed the weaknesses in their arguments. Watching him in court was like watching a master at work. His closing argument was powerful and left no doubt I was fully acquitted. Michael Waddington didn’t just represent me, he saved my career, my reputation, and my family. I am beyond grateful to Gonzalez & Waddington. If you are facing serious charges, you want them on your side.

Michael Waddington and Alexandra Gonzalez showed me they really cared about my wellbeing. After checking with three law firms, I decided on Gonzalez & Waddington because Alexandra answered right away. There were no intermediaries or waiting time to talk to them. I never dealt with lawyers before, but they made me feel comfortable from the beginning. When Michael showed up for ny hearing, we hit it off right away. He was well prepared and confident, but not too cocky. Despite all his success, he remained a humble and centered human being. Alexandra couldn't attend, but she maintained contact the whole time ensuring things were going well. I strongly recommend Gonzalez & Waddington Law Firm for any legal issues you may face.

Being in the service and having found myself in a situation I had no idea how to handle I sought legal representation, AS EVERYONE SHOULD, through G&W to help sort me out. Michael and Alexandra knew the move every step of the way and how to guide me through it. With so much uncertainty about the future of my 15yr career, it was great to have a foundation of knowledge, experience, and reassurance to stand steady on. After 15 months of waiting it was finally game time, and Michael showed up to play! In the end we won and I'm able to continue serving. I will never be able to thank them enough for all of their work, worth every damn dollar!
