If you have been charged with a crime in connection with a fatality, nothing less than your future and your freedom hang in the balance. If you or someone you love has been charged with murder, manslaughter or vehicular homicide, you need to understand that the prosecution will devote significant resources to obtaining a conviction. There are many complications and challenges associated with accusations of homicide or manslaughter. There may be great public outcry. The family who lost a loved one will be dealing with severe, often public grief. For these reasons, it is absolutely vital that you have a skilled defense lawyer on your side.
The Morristown, New Jersey, legal team of Maynard & Sumner, LLC, is ready to protect your rights.
We will examine all the factors involved in your case, as well as all potential defenses. Every case is unique. In the initial stages of a case, the most important challenge is investigating all known facts. A detailed investigation nearly always turns up opportunities for defense that are not immediately apparent from a police report or other first-impressions report of the incident. Depending on what happened, potential defenses could include self-defense, the lack of intent, or innocence.
We understand the legal issues and procedures involved in your case. If the evidence in your case was obtained in violation of your rights, we will make a persuasive case to the judge that this evidence should be suppressed. If it is necessary to try your case before a judge and jury, you can rely on us to make a dynamic presentation in court.
