DOHA Security Clearance Hearing Lawyers

Are You in Need of Representation at a DOHA Security Clearance Hearing?

If you have just responded to the Statement of Reasons (SOR) and your response requested a hearing before an administrative judge, time is of the essence. Only an attorney who possesses specific knowledge of the adjudication process can give you the assistance you need.

What Can You Expect During DOHA Security Clearance Hearings & Personal Appearances?

Before the DOHA hearing begins, the government’s counsel will brief you on the procedures and protocols surrounding this often-confusing process.

When the hearing begins, the administrative judge and government counsel will identify themselves for the record before the judge asks about your age and background in order to assess if you’re competent to represent yourself. The judge will then explain how the hearing is conducted before confirming your rights to object to any evidence brought forth by the DOHA attorney.

As the hearing proceeds, the administrative judge assigned to your case will allow both the government and the applicant (you) to put forth a valid case. The DOHA attorney will use the information you provided in your response to the SOR and can present witnesses and testimony to further prove that your security clearance should be revoked or denied.

While engaged in the DOHA administrative hearing and personal appearances, you may feel intimidated facing government counsel without adequate legal representation. That is because government counsel is known to be aggressive during the cross-examination of evidence and witnesses.

For this reason, you should never undergo this process alone, nor should you trust your DOHA administrative hearing and personal hearing case to just any attorney. Our attorneys are deeply familiar with all aspects of security clearance law.

The Administrative Judge’s Recommendation

It should be noted that for federal employees seeking security clearance that the administrative judge’s decision at the DOHA hearing and personal appearances stage is only a recommendation. For those federal employees who don’t fall under the DoDCAF, your appeals matter will go to a senior level case adjudicator.

For DOHA administrative hearing and personal appearances, the administrative judge’s recommendation will be submitted to the PSAB for further review. Only then will the PSAB vote on whether to grant or deny your application.
