Nashville Violent Crimes Attorney Handling Cases Involving Murder, Kidnapping, Rape — Robbery, Vehicular Homicide & Assault
Public opinion invariably reacts strongly to news of violent crimes, and families of alleged victims often press for conviction and maximum penalties. People accused of violent crimes, consequently, can feel that a fair trial of their case is impossible and that conviction is inevitable.
Fortunately, there is often hope for people accused of committing violent crimes. With the involvement of an experienced criminal defense lawyer, judges and juries can act compassionately when deliberating on the reasons and consequences of violent crime allegations.
The Nashville, Tennessee based criminal defense law firm of Meister Seelig & Schuster (MSS) managed by renowned criminal defense counsel, Kimberly S, Hodde offers experienced criminal defense legal services to individuals accused of violent crimes. Kimberly S. Hodde is highly analytical and has vast experience dealing with the scientific side of these types of cases. She has the educational and practical background as well as the confidence and intellect to successfully defend violent crime cases by picking apart the government’s use of scientific evidence and by offering independent expert testimony to rebut sloppy or inaccurate work by law enforcement.
Ms. Hodde has represented clients in many state and federal violent crime cases, including charges for:
- Murder (including federal capital cases)
- Kidnapping
- Rape
- Robbery (including federal Hobbs Act extortion and robberies)
- Vehicular homicide
