To schedule an initial consultation with an experienced attorney, call your nearest office or complete the form.

Being arrested for a homicide is one of the most serious offenses a person may face. The charged person, if convicted, could spend decades or a lifetime in prison. If convicted of first-degree murder, the defendant could face the death penalty.

We take homicide charges as seriously as our clients. We visit clients frequently in jail. We encourage group meetings with our clients and their families. You are welcome to call your lawyer’s cell phone at any time. At the Tucker Arensberg, our homicide defense lawyers put our experience to work on every homicide case.

We do our own investigation. Our lawyers do not rely on police reports and what the prosecutor tells us. We have available an experienced investigator who will go with us to the scene, talk to witnesses and review and challenge the state’s proof at every step of the criminal justice process. Our attorneys want to put our client in the best position possible for an acquittal, a dismissal, or a reduction in charges.

We are effective trial lawyers. Collectively, we have tried hundreds of criminal cases. In preparing our homicide defense cases, questioning witnesses, presenting evidence, or addressing the jury, we never forget how important this case is to the defendant and the defendant’s family.
