How We Defend You

Homicide in Maryland includes multiple criminal offenses, each with unique legal definitions and penalties. Understanding the type of charge you face is crucial for mounting an effective defense.

Murder Defense: Defending against murder charges requires a comprehensive investigation to uncover all potential defenses.

Self-Defense: Maryland law allows self-defense claims when you reasonably believed you were in imminent danger of serious harm. Evidence we gather includes:

• Witness statements
• Medical documentation of injuries
• Video or audio recordings
  

Diminished Capacity: When defending vehicular homicide, we examine all aspects of the case, including:

• Whether there is proof of impairment
• Whether police followed proper procedures
• Whether your actions directly caused the death

Challenging Blood Tests: Blood alcohol content (BAC) testing is often key evidence. We scrutinize:

• Whether blood samples were collected by qualified personnel
• Whether proper chain of custody was maintained
• Whether laboratory procedures met legal standards
  

Challenging Causation: Prosecutors must prove your actions directly caused the death. We examine other potential contributing factors:

• Dangerous road conditions
• Mechanical failures
• Actions of other drivers
• Medical factors unrelated to the accident
