Arson Defense Attorneys in Los Angeles
Under California's strict arson laws, you do not have to be the person who started the fire to be charged with the crime -- simply helping or counseling the person who started the fire is sufficient. Due to this low standard for being charged, innocent people can be easily implicated.
The threat of an arson conviction should be taken very seriously -- the consequences are severe, involving at least a year of prison time, minimum. If someone suffered serious injury in the fire you allegedly started, you will spend at least five years in prison if convicted. With your freedom at stake, you need the help of experienced and aggressive Los Angeles arson lawyers.
Our experienced Los Angeles arson lawyers will focus on conducting an extensive and thorough investigation of how the fire originated and the circumstances under which you were implicated. We will work closely with fire and explosives experts and reconstruction specialists as part of building a strategic defense that demonstrates your innocence.
