Effective Defense Against Charges of Violent Crime
Murder and other violent offenses are often the result of misunderstandings that spiral out of control. Acts of self defense and bad decisions made in the heat of passion may also result in an arrest and criminal charge, such as:
- Homicide
- Manslaughter
- Attempted murder
- Assault and battery
- Domestic violence
- Weapons charges such as illegal discharge of a firearm, felon in possession of a firearm and aggravated battery
There are often defenses available to those who are charged with these violent acts that can effectively reduce these charges and even result in the finding of innocence. Our attorneys have a proven track record of success in aggressively defending our clients' rights, building a strong case to attack the prosecution's theory and providing our clients with ethical and effective representation in criminal trials and appeals.

Immediate Action is Vital in Serious Criminal Cases
The criminal justice system was founded on the principle that a person is innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. We will work tirelessly to force the government to meet that very high burden.
Identification and other evidentiary issues may mean the difference in a not guilty verdict or a sentence of life in prison or even the death penalty. Recent exonerations based on DNA evidence have established beyond any doubt that innocent people have wrongfully spent decades in prison and may even have been executed.
