Oppenheimer Firm

Chicago’s Nationally Recognized Civil Rights And Criminal Defense Firm

Charged With Attempted First-Degree Murder? We Know How To Win Cases.

If you have been charged with attempted first-degree murder, the prosecution must prove that you took actions and had the intent to kill a specific individual.

At The Oppenheimer Firm, we force the prosecution to prove every aspect of its case beyond a reasonable doubt. We are not looking to get our clients a quick plea bargain. Instead, we will aggressively pursue defense strategies, including as appropriate: self-defense, lack of intent, intoxication and insanity. We will also aggressively contest all evidence against you and protect your constitutional rights from the investigation through trial. If the evidence against you was obtained in violation of the law, we will work diligently to have that evidence thrown out of court.

You Can Rely On Our Courtroom Experience

Our founder, Michael Oppenheimer, is among the most noted trial attorneys in Chicago, and nationwide, in murder defense cases. Named to the National Trial Lawyers Top 100 litigators in the country, he and the rest of our team use cutting-edge investigative techniques, including forensic evidence, to ensure that every alleged piece of evidence is thoroughly examined. We are strong defenders of your constitutional rights, and we hold police accountable for violating those rights during its investigation.

When your life is on the line, you cannot afford to settle for anything less.

We have represented more defendants against murder charges than any other firm in the city. We have obtained an impressive number of not-guilty verdicts involving first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder and other violent crimes.
