Security Clearance Issues, Problems, Denials and Revocations
(If you have a security clearance with no issues, then you don’t need this book. If, however, you are worried about any aspect of your security clearance, then you absolutely need this book!) Attorney Ronald C. Sykstus first started handling security clearance matters as a prosecutor in the United States Army. Subsequent to that, he defended active-duty soldiers and officers who were having their clearances revoked. He has continued his security clearance defense practice as a civilian lawyer since he left the United States Army with an honorable discharge. Ron is very aware of the importance of having a security clearance for obtaining meaningful and well-compensated employment, both within the government and in the private contracting industry. This book covers all aspects of the security clearance process. It is especially geared toward people who not only run into problems with their existing security clearance, but also for those who have concerns about getting a security clearance and making sure that their clearance or job is not jeopardized down the road. This book addresses people’s concerns at all phases of the security clearance process, and it does so in a way that makes sense and is easy to understand. If you are about to be put in for a clearance and if you have any questions, worries or concerns at all about the process or your background, you would really do yourself a great favor by reading this book first, BEFORE YOU TAKE ANY STEPS TOWARDS YOUR CLEARANCE!
