Homicide

Orlando Homicide Defense Attorneys

Even in cases where evidence exists connecting the accused to a murder, convicting someone for homicide is not a straightforward, simple matter. Typically, the seriousness of the charge will depend on whether the prosecutor believes the accused intended to kill the victim, whether the crime was planned, and whether enough physical evidence exists to link the accused to the actual crime itself. As such, the prosecution must establish the accused's mental state, motive, and physical action to accomplish the crime. Failure to establish any one of these factors will result in acquittal or a reduction in charges.

At the law office of Muller & Sommerville, our attorneys work with forensic specialists, lab technicians, weapons experts, toxicologists, hair and fiber analysts, and others in challenging the evidence against our client. We identify improperly secured crime scenes, the mishandling of evidence, and leads and suspects investigators failed to fully investigate.
