Murder charges frequently arise alongside related charges such as aggravated assault, robbery, or domestic violence.

One team handling every charge in your case means a coordinated defense strategy from the start.

Under Investigation But Not Yet Charged

Being under investigation for murder doesn’t mean charges are inevitable. The investigation phase is a window during which an attorney can engage with law enforcement, work to gather evidence, and in some cases seek to prevent charges from being filed. If detectives have made contact, or if you know you are a person of interest in a death investigation, speaking to an attorney before responding to law enforcement is the most important step you can take.

If a loved one has been arrested, contact a defense attorney immediately before the accused speaks to anyone at the jail. Statements made in the early hours after an arrest, before counsel is present, carry real evidentiary consequences. Options that exist at the investigation stage may not be available after an indictment is returned. The sooner an attorney is involved, the greater the ability to shape what happens next.

Real People. Real Wins.
