Murder Defense

Know Your Charge: Homicide

Being accused of murder in the state of Florida is a serious criminal offense that needs to be met with the steadfast legal representation of a lawyer. If you are facing allegations of this nature then you should not wait to obtain legal counsel to aid in your defense, as the accusations that have been made against you are some of the most serious in all of criminal law. Defined as the unlawful killing of another human being, murder is assumed to involved pre-planned malice and it is this piece of the definition that sets it apart from other acts of homicide. Some of the harshest punishments in all of the U.S. are inflicted on those individuals that are convicted of murder, including extensive prison time that could likely last a lifetime. If you have been accused of murder, whether or not the allegations are true, you need to take swift action in securing legal counsel that can be put to work for your defense.

Murder charges are the highest crimes known to man. As such, penalties for a murder conviction reflect an equally high set of consequences. Unfortunately, allegations of murder are not met kindly in the state and federal court systems. More often than not, prosecuting attorneys, courtroom judges, and jury panelists are primed to think in favor of the idea that the defendant is guilty of the crimes for which they have been accused. Your criminal defense lawyer will have their work cut out for them as they work their way through the system to represent your case. That being said, it is crucial to the wellbeing of your case - the wellbeing of your entire future, for that matter - to obtain the defensive skills of an attorney from our firm.
