Violent Crime

In serious violent crime cases — homicide, robbery, sexual offenses, and more —
we respond with thorough factual analysis and precise legal examination.

01

Overview

Violent crimes — homicide, robbery, arson, sexual violence, and child abuse — involve serious harm to legally protected interests and carry the potential for sentences including life imprisonment and the death penalty. The outcome turns on precise factual analysis, verification of scientific evidence, and systematic presentation of sentencing factors.

Drawing on the experience of attorneys who have served in the Prosecutors' Office Violent Crime and Sex Crime divisions, PYEONG AN handles every stage of violent crime defense: verifying the voluntariness of confessions at the investigation stage, analyzing scientific evidence (DNA and digital forensics), cross-examining witnesses at trial, and presenting sentencing arguments.
