Las Vegas Murder Attorney

Are you looking for a murder lawyer in Las Vegas? There are two different types of murder:

First Degree Murder: A first-degree murder is a voluntary and premeditated killing. In many states, first-degree murder is also charged when a killing results from another violent crime, regardless of whether it was intended. Those convicted could face the death penalty or life in prison.

Second Degree Murder: Second-degree murder is best understood as opportunistic, intentional killing. It's a killing that wasn't planned, like a first-degree murder, but also didn't result from "the heat of the moment," as with voluntary manslaughter. It can also be a killing that results from dangerous behavior that obviously lacks regard for human life. Those convicted face 15 years to life in prison.
