Murder cases are factually and legally complex and as such, require specific resources and attention. Our clients who are charged with murder will get the highest quality representation. The assigned attorney will work in a team alongside members of the Investigation, Social Services, and Appellate Units, to ensure a thorough review and investigation of the state’s evidence, and a comprehensive preparation of guilt and penalty phase theories.
