- Homicide Charges Need a Strong Criminal Defense | Phillips Law Group
Being charged with a crime in Arizona is always a serious matter for everyone involved. Being charged with a homicide offense is as serious as it gets, as the defendant’s life could be on the line if he or she is convicted of certain charges.
If you are being investigated for a homicide charge or you’ve been arrested for such an offense, you face the fight of your life and owe it to yourself to take every step humanly possible to build a strong defense. This all starts with securing the help of an experienced Phoenix criminal defense lawyer. Below you’ll see a few reasons as to why this is important.
1. Criminal Defense Perspective
An experienced Arizona criminal defense attorney will have a degree of perspective that’s impossible to obtain without having several trials and other cases behind you to bolster your approach to such a stressful situation. Anyone who is charged with homicide of any type is obviously dealing with emotions that tend to detract from sound decision making, and this is no time for mistakes in judgment given the extreme consequences.
2. Phoenix Defense Strategy
The most important aspect of any homicide case is the strategy for the defense. Luckily, the Constitution guarantees the right to a defense, and depending on the facts involved, there could be several different options available to a defendant. However, the decision on a defense strategy needs to be made properly, because if the court rejects your defense it could destroy your entire case. You need experience and skill working with you to make that decision.
3. Arizona Criminal Defense Reputation
Arizona may be a populous state, but the legal community remains quite small, especially within the realm of criminal law. Therefore, your attorney’s reputation will precede him or her in any case. This is critical for many reasons, not the least of which concerns the prosecution’s approach given the defense attorney on the case. If you work with a serious criminal defense attorney, the prosecutor may be more willing to negotiate a plea if possible. This could save you from facing the ultimate consequence.
Ultimately, if you face a homicide charge in Arizona, your fate may rest in the hands of the decision you make regarding the attorney you hire.

I want to thank attorneys Tim and Robert and the paralegal Bethany for all they had done on my case. They were all empathetic, knowledgeable and professional. All my questions were answered, emails returned in a timely matter, and promises fulfilled. I recommend Phillips Law Group if you need help with your injury case.

I’ve been working at Phillips Law Group for nearly four years and I can confidently say this is the best personal injury firm in Arizona to work for. The firm is the best for numerous reasons but to start, Phillips Law Group gives employees opportunities for promotions and growth. I started working within the settlement department, moved to a paralegal assistant and grew to be a pre-litigation paralegal with my own case load. Each attorney I have worked for is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. Secondly, I love how Phillips Law shows appreciation for employees. They host Friday Zoom Huddles giving out PTO, goodie bags, special shout outs, bonuses and gift cards. They also host extravagant holiday parties and fun contests during the Holidays! Lastly, the firm cares about giving back to the community, which is a trait I value as well. It’s rewarding to see a fast paced firm taking time out of their busy day to pay it forward. I would highly recommend working at Phillips Law Group!

Many companies talk about teamwork but few practice it. Many companies talk about an employee friendly environment but few actually provide it. At Phillips Law Group the foundation of our success is making sure we work as a team and that we work in an environment that allows everyone to thrive and be at their best every day. Our firm understands that in order for the client to have a great experience the people responsible for that client’s case must be given all the necessary tools and encouragement to make that happen. That’s the Phillips Way. As a manager of this firm in charge of several employees as well as directly affecting the client’s experience I take tremendous pride in saying we live by these premises and we work hard to build on them and make them better every day. This is an amazing place because it has amazing people working here!

Juan Roque has been integral with my legal needs. Communication has been easy. He conveys information I can easily understand without a lot of "Legal Fluff" jargon. I will certainly do business with Phillips Legal team again and refer them to my friends and family.
