If you have been charged with murder — even if you are not guilty — you need legal representation. It is very important that you speak with a legal professional before you talk to the police. Cavalluzzi & Cavalluzzi, a firm offering the services of two highly respected defense attorneys/ murder lawyers in the West Hollywood-Beverly Hills area, is highly experienced at building effective defense strategies for murder cases. We will fight aggressively to preserve your rights and to get your charge reduced or dismissed.
While homicide is broadly defined as the killing of a person by another person, murder is an aspect of homicide that is described as an intentional killing. Unlike the specific charge of murder, however, a homicide may not necessarily be considered a crime. Homicide may be excused when it is committed in self-defense, in order to prevent a violent crime from occurring, or by accident — as in an unintentional hunting shooting. However the charge of homicide is characterized, our murder defense attorneys in West Hollywood-Beverly Hills can help get your charge reduced or dismissed.

There are several different types of murder charges. Depending on the facts of the case – particularly if the homicide was intentional or accidental – a defendant may be charged with first- or second-degree murder, murder for hire, manslaughter, vehicular manslaughter, or other similar crimes. The defense attorneys at Cavalluzzi & Cavalluzzi fight relentlessly to have their clients’ murder charges dismissed or commuted to lesser charges. For instance, negotiation and perseverance can sometimes induce the prosecution to reduce a charge from first-degree murder to manslaughter. The lawyers at our firm serving the Beverly Hills/West Hollywood area can help you understand your rights. We will work diligently to obtain the best possible resolution of your case.

A person who has been charged with murder has the same rights as any other human being. You have the right to defense attorneys, and the right to be protected against self-incrimination.

The lawyers at Cavalluzzi & Cavalluzzi will maintain your innocence and attempt to get your charges reduce or dismissed or, if necessary, pursue an acquittal in a murder trial. Our lawyers have the experience to defend against the most serious of charges and to spot weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. As is our duty, we keep all of our conversations with you completely private and confidential. You can trust Cavalluzzi & Cavalluzzi to offer you the most skilled representation, sympathetic guidance, and aggressive defense possible in order to protect your rights and preserve your freedom.
