Facing Attempted Murder Charges in California? I’m Here to Fight for Your Freedom and Your Future.
Attempted murder is one of the most serious criminal charges you can face in California. The penalties are severe, including life imprisonment, and the impact on your life and reputation can be devastating. If you’ve been charged with attempted murder, it’s critical to have an experienced attorney who understands California’s complex laws and can mount a strong defense. I’m committed to protecting your rights, challenging the prosecution’s case, and working tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome for you.
What I Offer:
Understanding California Attempted Murder Law: Under California Penal Code Section 664/187, attempted murder occurs when someone takes a direct step toward killing another person with the specific intent to commit murder. Unlike murder, where the victim dies, attempted murder focuses on the intent and the act of trying to kill, even if the victim survives or no physical harm occurs. I’ll help you understand the specifics of the charges against you, including whether the prosecution is pursuing first-degree or second-degree attempted murder.
Challenging the Prosecution’s Case: A key part of your defense will be challenging the evidence the prosecution presents. I’ll thoroughly investigate the circumstances of the alleged incident, examining witness statements, forensic evidence, and any available video footage to identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. My goal is to create reasonable doubt and work toward having the charges reduced or dismissed.
Defending Against First-Degree and Second-Degree Attempted Murder: Attempted murder in California can be charged as either first-degree or second-degree, depending on factors such as premeditation, deliberation, and the use of a deadly weapon. First-degree attempted murder carries harsher penalties, including life in prison. I’ll work to reduce the charges to second-degree or lesser offenses, minimizing the potential penalties.
Exploring Legal Defenses: Several defenses can be effective in attempted murder cases, including:
Minimizing Penalties: Even in cases where a conviction seems likely, I’ll fight to minimize the penalties you face. This could involve negotiating plea deals for lesser charges, advocating for reduced sentences, or seeking alternative sentencing options that focus on rehabilitation rather than punishment.
