Even just being accused of murder turns your life upside down. You’re facing the intimidating California criminal justice system, which is intent on putting you away for life.

Why Our Daly City Murder Defense Lawyer Is The Right Choice To Defend You
For a San Mateo County prosecutor to convict you of murder, they must present a case that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that you committed the crime. Murder trials are nothing like you see on TV. There’s no dramatic unveiling of surprise witnesses, and the matter is very serious and deliberate. What Law & Order doesn’t show you is that there is a pre-trial discovery process in which each side exchange information and evidence about the matter. Our attorneys have access to the evidence the police and prosecutor collected before the trial starts and carefully analyze the strength of the state’s case.
One way our lawyers can help you is by scrutinizing the evidence the police collected and how they gathered it. If your civil rights were violated, we may be able to have certain pieces of evidence removed before a jury sees them.
We also conduct our own investigation into the matter, seeking evidence to exonerate you. Our firm has considerable resources, including professional investigators, to do so. We know that each murder case is unique, evidence may disappear, and witness’s memories can fade fast, so we get to work right away to build a case for your innocence.
Our Dedicated Criminal Defense Lawyers Support Your Rights
As your Daly City murder defense lawyer, we will stand by your side any time you are interviewed by law enforcement, both the police and prosecutors. Our support and advocacy will help prevent you from inadvertently saying something that could harm your case.
We also take care of all the legal matters on your behalf, from filing motions and responding to those made by the other side to talking with event witnesses and character witnesses. We also pay close attention to the science of a murder trial. Elements like DNA, blood spatter, and even footprints or transferred fibers can all play a pivotal role in your trial. Our training and education have made us very familiar with how scientific evidence can make or break a case, and we strive to make it work in your favor.
