Homicide Lawyers Pennsylvania
Delaware County, PA | Chester County, PA | Montgomery County, PA
Being charged with murder, homicide or manslaughter is a terrifying position to be in. If you have a loved one charged with these crimes, it can be scary for the whole family. But being charged with a crime is not the same as being convicted of one.
At Saadzoi Law, we believe everyone deserves their right to tell their side of story and make sure it heard loud and clear. Not everyone charged with a crime is guilty and good people make bad decisions every day that can lead to things getting out of their control.
Even so, murder charges are very serious and the punishments very harsh upon conviction.
That is why we will do everything to fight for you and seek to have your charges reduced or dismissed completely.
If you or a loved one is charged with murder, homicide or manslaughter, do not wait contact me – Attorney Wana Saadzoi – for a free legal case evaluation.

Information on Murder Charges in Pennsylvania
First Degree, Second Degree Murder | Voluntary / Involuntary Manslaughter / Homicide
It is vitally important to have an experienced criminal defense attorney on your side if you are facing murder charges.
There are many types of murder and related criminal charges. The Pennsylvania Crimes Code defines “Criminal homicide” as “intentionally, knowingly, recklessly or negligently causes the death of another human being.”
Murder is classified in various degrees. First degree murder generally means “an intentional killing,” second degree murder occurs “when it is committed while defendant was engaged as a principal or an accomplice in the perpetration of a felony,” and third degree murder includes “All other kinds of murder.”
Voluntary manslaughter occurs when a person, at the time of the killing is acting under a sudden and intense passion resulting from serious provocation by the individual killed or another whom the actor endeavors to kill. Involuntary manslaughter occurs when, as a direct result of doing an unlawful act in a reckless or grossly negligent manner, or the doing of a lawful act in a reckless or grossly negligent manner, the accused causes the death of another person.
Defending Against Murder Charges in Pennsylvania
To defend against charges of murder or manslaughter, along with the possibility that the District Attorney or prosecutor will seek the death penalty, requires a team of aggressive investigators and lawyers all devoting their maximum effort for the client.
As an experienced Pennsylvania criminal lawyer, I have represented clients charged with murder, manslaughter and similar crimes and successfully reached not guilty verdicts.
When possible, I will work to convince the authorities to drop and dismiss cases at their inception, before reputations are ruined and life and liberty is stake. My goal is to get your charges dismissed or dropped altogether.
When these cases do move forward, I will assemble a team of investigators and support staff who will explore every possible defense so that we may aggressively and zealously defend our clients against these charges.
