Naperville Attempted Murder Attorney

Developing A Creative Defense Strategy To Fight For You

Being charged with attempted murder does not mean that you will be convicted. There are a number of elements that need to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt for a judge or jury to be able to convict you. A skilled criminal defense attorney can help ensure that the prosecution has to prove each element necessary to win a conviction.

Some of the elements that are necessary to prove in order to gain a conviction for attempted murder include intending to murder another person and taking a significant step toward the completion of the murder.

Proving those elements can be difficult for prosecutors, and a skilled defense attorney will work to make that task even more challenging. We can work to attack any evidence that is meant to show that you intended to commit murder. We can also attack any evidence that is submitted to prove that a substantial step toward completing the murder was taken. In some situations, we may be able to negotiate a plea bargain for a lesser charge, such as manslaughter, but whenever possible, we will help you determine whether your charges may be dismissed or whether we may be able to secure an acquittal.
