(CNN) -- Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl could meet next week with the general who's looking into how the now-freed prisoner of war was captured by the Taliban in 2009, his attorney said.

Attorney Eugene Fidell told CNN he will know for sure next week exactly when the meeting will take place.

When it happens, it'll be the first meeting between Bergdahl and Maj. Gen. Kenneth Dahl who is the point person for the Army's investigation.

The 28-year-old soldier spent five years in the hands of Taliban militants after he disappeared in Afghanistan in June 2009.

After he was released in May in exchange for five senior Taliban members held by the U.S. military, Bergdahl underwent counseling and medical care at a hospital in San Antonio, Texas.

The news of Bergdahl's freedom initially was met with jubilation, but it quickly turned as many called for an investigation into his disappearance and captivity. Some critics accused the soldier of deserting his comrades in war.

Q: Sgt Bergdahl, did you do anything wrong?

A: No.

Q: Good enough for me. Here's your back pay, retroactive promotion, silver star, honorable discharge, and disability checks for life.

I hope it’s impartial and not just a political whitewash.
