Will Helixon is the finest military lawyer I have ever worked with. As the Brigade Judge Advocate in both Italy and Afghanistan, Will prosecuted an incredible amount of cases across a myriad of offenses to include several court martial cases in the combat zone and prevailed in them all. His skills go far beyond his military justice acumen. I relied on his advice and counsel under the most difficult circumstances during a long and arduous combat tour in Afghanistan. Will was a critical part of clearance of fires with literally minutes to evaluate and render his opinion in life or death situations, his counsel was always on the mark. I trust him completely in the most difficult pressure-filled environment imaginable. He was simply brilliant at rapidly assessing the situation and providing advice to me as a commander in the field. There is no better pressure player than Will. I will always be grateful he was by my side. The Army has recognized his tremendous abilities after his tour as a Brigade Judge Advocate by assigning him the most difficult, contentious, and high profile cases in the US Army. Despite enormous pressure he was always true to the military justice system and his sense of what is right never wavered. His integrity is beyond reproach. Will brings incredible passion to his chosen profession. As an acknowledgement of his abilities and passion for the law, Will was selected and certified for the prestigious position of military judge. Finally Will Helixon is a man I would readily trust to take care of my family. I can pay no higher compliment or endorsement.
