Aggressively fighting homicide charges
A defendant charged with a homicide faces a lifetime of incarceration or, in some cases, death. You need an attorney who is determined and serious about fighting for you, and who has the experience and knowledge to succeed. Oklahoma City criminal law attorney James T. Rowan has dedicated more than 30 years to defending individuals in the criminal justice system and is a true advocate for the rights of those charged with homicide.

Forensic evidence
A homicide investigation often involves the collection and analysis of extensive scientific evidence. Because jurors tend to put substantial faith in the reliability and conclusiveness of science, forensic evidence is one of the most powerful tools in the courtroom. During our meticulous review of autopsy records, blood splatter and gun powder analyses, firearm tests, DNA reports, and other hard scientific documents, attorney James T. Rowan can often turn the prosecution’s evidence into a persuasive defense tactic. James is skilled at finding mistakes, inconsistencies and gaps when deposing the prosecution’s medical examiners, firearm experts, DNA specialists and fingerprint examiners. James matches the state’s experts with highly educated, knowledgeable forensic scientists who tear the allegations apart.

Capital murder
Oklahoma can impose the death penalty if a homicide involves certain aggravating factors. James T. Rowan aggressively attacks the alleged special circumstances before trial to prevent the state from seeking the death penalty. When the state pursues capital punishment, the firm plans your defense to prove the client’s innocence while preparing arguments for mitigating factors to spare the client’s life. Lawyer James T. Rowan fights for justice in capital cases at all stages of the judicial process.

Reducing a murder charge
The prosecution must show the element of intent for a first-degree murder conviction. Disproving intent can lower the degree of the charge and minimize the sentence imposed. James T. Rowan strategizes whether it is in the client’s best interest to request a lower degree homicide charge as an option for the jury.
