Murder Charges 

Murder is defined as the unlawful killing of another person by someone of sound mind, with the intent to kill or to cause grievous bodily harm. It is the most serious offence in English law and, upon conviction, carries a mandatory life sentence. 

All murder trials are indictable-only offences, meaning they are heard before a judge and jury in the Crown Court. If you’re charged with murder, your defence team will typically include a King’s Counsel (KC) — one of the highest-ranking barristers — supported by an experienced junior counsel and a dedicated solicitor. 

At IMD Solicitors, we are highly experienced in representing individuals charged with murder. We work alongside some of the most respected barristers in England and Wales, ensuring our clients receive top-tier legal representation at every stage of what may be the most critical legal challenge of their lives. 

We take a personal, detail-driven approach to each case, combining robust defence strategies with sensitive client care. Our focus is on protecting your rights, defending your interests, and delivering the strongest possible advocacy both in and out of court.
