Murder, manslaughter, homicide, 187... nothing in our justice system evokes more emotion, no charge provokes more fear. When you or your loved one is charged with a homicide chargelike first degree murder, second degree murder, voluntary manslaughter or involuntary manslaughter, you know you need a real trial lawyer; you need a talented criminal defense attorney.

The fact of a murder charge is that the prosecution is not likely to give a pre-trial settlement offer short of life in prison. Bail is routinely denied to murder defendants. An attorney cannot use his or her "connections"; he or she cannot make a few phone calls to make a case go away. Murder cases are high-profile in the media, and lawyers' careers are made and destroyed. If you don't have a charismatic trial attorney experienced in providing murder defense, then there may be no hope of seeing the outside world again.

Even though the prosecutors, investigators and inspectors spend tremendous time investigating cases, they make mistakes. Often times, they try to overextend the value of their evidence to support tenuous allegations or weak theories.

The government expends tremendous financial and human resources to investigate murder cases. The recordings of witness interviews can fill many CD-ROM media, and the transcripts of police reports and interviews can span thousands of pages. The prosecutors use of grand jury proceedings robs the defense of its chance to discredit government evidence prior to trial. So you need a champion who can combat those tactics with a few of his own.

The skilled murder trial lawyer knows that cases are won or lost based not only on better investigations and better knowledge of the law, but more importantly better delivery of the trial presentation. Paul Puri is a talented and gifted trial lawyer. There are some gifts that no amount of training or experience can teach. You can't train a former cop to be eloquent. You can't teach a former prosecutor what's it's like to care only for little guy/girl.

In other words, in a real fight for life, you will want an attorney with far more than just a collection of tricks picked up while working at this or that office. A great trial lawyer is beyond gimmicks; he has the ability to transform the courtroom into a place where every one is equal, equally swept up and cast down before the law, and the
courtroom becomes the place where serious justice is a life's greatest story.

A winning defense theory is crafted by an attorney who elevates his professional skill to the level of a master artist. Once one understands that the murder case is going to trial, one realizes that he or she needs excellent trial advocacy representation. When you have one shot at freedom, one chance to save your life, you have to contact the trial lawyer with the talent, skill and experience to fight and win your murder charge.
