The Experience That Counts

I possess the demonstrated experience to capably defend anyone facing murder charges. In 29 years as a criminal defense attorney, I have represented numerous murder defendants at trial and in plea negotiations. As a solo practitioner, you are assured that I will personally handle every aspect of your case and vigorously protect your rights.

Before entering private practice in 1978, I spent four years as a Riverside County criminal prosecutor. I know how prosecutors think, and can anticipate their strategies and determine where their case is weakest. I have a solid representation with Southern California judges and prosecuting attorneys, who know that I am meticulous in my investigations and formidable in court.

Challenging a Homicide Case

During the initial phase, I thoroughly examine all elements of the district attorney's case. My firm employs private investigators, forensics specialists and other experts to find and exploit any holes in the case. We scrutinize DNA and other physical evidence, reliability of alleged witnesses to the crime, police errors or violations of rights, assignment of motive and intent, and any other basis for fighting the charges.

At your preliminary hearing on murder charges, the judge will determine if there is sufficient cause to proceed to trial. If a trial is ordered, I sit down with the client for a frank discussion of the possible outcomes.

  • When the prosecution's case is likely to result in conviction, I have a solid record in negotiating plea bargains with district attorneys that are most favorable to my client.
• If you decide to retain our services at trial, we use every resource and strategy to create reasonable doubt in the minds of jury members to get a not guilty verdict.

The specter of years or life in prison demands that you retain the best legal counsel available. For effective representation on murder charges, contact Daniel L. Greenberg, P.L.C. today. We offer a free initial consultation, and we can work out payment arrangements to provide the solid defense that every murder defendant needs and deserves.
