Our Mission: Reinforcing Justice At Civilian Military Defense Fund Inc. (CMDF Inc.), we stand as a critical safeguard for service members navigating the complex and often unforgiving military justice system. We are dedicated to ensuring that those who have sworn to defend our nation are themselves afforded the justice, due process, and legal defense they deserve. We provide direct financial assistance and legal resources to active duty, reserve, and, in mission-aligned cases, retired or separated military personnel, as well as family members facing military-related legal battles. Whether confronting court-martial proceedings, administrative separations, appeals, or collateral litigation in federal courts, we ensure that no service member fights alone. We recognize the vast disparity in experience and resources between military-appointed counsel and highly skilled civilian legal defense teams. Our mission is to bridge that gap—to give our service members access to the nation’s most elite civilian defense attorneys, expert witnesses, and litigation resources. Beyond individual cases, we are committed to confronting systemic issues within the military justice system, exposing unlawful command influence, due process violations, and institutional failures that erode fairness and integrity. We also recognize the devastating mental health impact of military legal proceedings and stand ready to support suicide prevention, mental health advocacy, and lifestyle stabilization programs for those caught in the crosshairs of unjust legal actions. At CMDF Inc., we are more than a legal defense fund—we are a movement to restore justice, reinforce accountability, and uphold the fundamental rights of those who serve.
