Accused Of Murder? Say Nothing Until We’re On The Scene

If you or a loved one faces murder charges, it’s critical that you say nothing to the police until I can speak with you. Your life might depend on it. Whether you face the death penalty or possibly life in prison, the penalties for murder are extremely harsh – and the police might have no qualms about lying to you to produce a confession or trick you into saying something that could jeopardize your case.


I have successfully defended our clients from murder charges – and will aggressively pursue the most favorable outcome in your case.

How Will You Build My Defense?

When you face murder charges, you need a lawyer with the knowledge and skills to mount a persuasive defense. I partner with mental health professionals, toxicologists, private investigators, and forensic experts to give you or your loved one the best shot at beating the charges. I investigate everything, including the process the police followed in their investigation, to look for errors or omissions. And, in the courtroom, I use every legal tool we have to defend you during the most stressful time in your life. Get me in your corner now.

Pursuing the Best Possible Outcome in Murder Cases

While complete exoneration is my ultimate goal, whether a favorable verdict or dismissal of charges, I also look at other options, including reducing first-degree murder charges to second-degree murder – or even to manslaughter. No matter what your option, I challenge every aspect of the prosecutor’s case aggressively to bring about the most favorable outcome. Don’t wait a moment longer. Let me fight for you!
