Facing a Homicide Charge? You Need a Defence Built on Strategy and Precision

Homicide charges are some of the most serious in Canadian law. They require an experienced and focused defence. At JM Defence, we take a detailed, trial-focused approach to these cases. We review every piece of evidence, challenge the Crown’s narrative, and work with leading experts to build a strong defence.

We represent clients charged with:

• First-Degree Murder
  We challenge the Crown’s theory of planning and intent and seek to exclude weak or prejudicial evidence.
• Second-Degree Murder
  We explore defences related to context, motive, and mental state and push for charge reductions where appropriate.
• Manslaughter
  We assess whether intent was present and look for opportunities to resolve or reduce the charge.
• Attempted Murder
  We review witness statements, forensic evidence, and inconsistencies in the Crown’s case.
• Related Offences
  We also defend clients charged as accessories, or those facing conspiracy or obstruction allegations tied to homicide investigations.

Homicide cases demand preparation, discipline, and focus. Jimmy Malhi brings those qualities to every file. If you or someone close to you is facing a homicide charge, contact JM Defence today to discuss next steps.
