When your career with the Canadian Armed Forces comes to its end, whether you've made the personal decision to seek your voluntary release (resign), complete your service (retire), or your superiors have sought your compulsory release (terminate/fire) from military service, you need to undertake a thorough review and assessment of what you are legally entitled to and the federal government owes you.

In particular, where the Canadian Armed Forces has instituted your compulsory release, be it from their preceived 'performance failure', 'non-compliance with the Universality of Service', medical, 'disciplinary' and/or administrative issues as per their unilateral and biased interpretation of the Canadian Armed Forces' Release Authority, you need to understand were you stand and how to maximize your payout at the end of your military service career.

You've served your country and you should be fully paid for your military service work; nevertheless, Canadian Armed Forces officers and non-commissioned members have historically taken far less than what they are legally entitled to. Military training does not delve into the legal intricacies of employee pay, especially in the deconstruction of employment law and financial computations such that you might effectively challenge the federal government and pursue that which you are legally entitled to.

That is the purview of lawyers such as ourselves, who have taken it upon ourselves to investigate, research, scrutinize and decipher the volumes of publicly-available federal government information and documentation that relates to Canadian Armed Forces members have legally earned and are entitled to be paid, be they an officer or a non-commissioned member. Our extensive legal work in this realm has fortified our professional position that long-serving Canadian Armed Forces members, at the end of their military service career, are not receiving all the money that they are legally entitled and the legalities for pursue legal action to that money is incredibly strong from a legal standpoint.

Payouts to Canadian Armed Forces members at the end of their military service career demand far more scrutiny, given what we already know based on our review of the federal government's public reporting and is confirmed by other information and material that has been placed into the public domain, together with our own extensive legal research and analysis.

This is not mere speculation, but the result of intensive review and analysis, that emanates from knowing what to look for and where to look for it, because the amount of information and materials that the federal government has put forth, both directly and indirectly pertaining to Canadian Armed Forces members is truly astounding. And it is extremely revealing, but only if one can identify the pertinent facts, interconnect them and thereafter apply them to the applicable law and other areas of financial and legal analysis, so as to draw up actual conclusions that are supported by that factual analysis and reveals how Canadian Armed Forces members are due more than what they are being paid out at the end of their military service careers.

If you are a Canadian Armed Forces officer or non-commissioned member whose military service career has come to an end, even in the past few years, whether on your decision to undertake your voluntary release (resign), completed your service (retire) or your superior having implemented your compulsory release (terminated / fired) from the military service, contact our law firm to schedule a free confidential initial consultation at Chris@NeufeldLegal.com or 403-400-4092 / 905-616-8864.
