[vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Prince William County Defense Attorneys for Murder and Other Serious Criminal Charges” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Violent offenses in Virginia are those offenses that cause serious threat or injury to another person and may involve the use of a deadly weapon. Punishments for such crimes are usually greater than twenty years and may even include a life sentence. Capital murder carries the possibility of a death penalty. Most violent offenses are investigated by an experienced detective and involve the use of eye-witnesses, physical evidence, photographs, examinations by experts including Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners or other medical personnel.

Common Virginia charges we have experience defending include:

  • Murder
  • Rape
  • Robbery
  • Carjacking
  • Breaking and Entering with a Deadly Weapon
  • Malicious Wounding
