About

The Nimmo Law Group is regulary hired to defend serious criminal cases throughout Southern California. The lawyers of the Nimmo Law Group have a special aptitude for, and a dedication to, defending people accused of major charges. They understand that many people charged by prosecutors are innocent, overcharged, or misunderstood. This is what makes them go the extra mile for their clients. Prosecutors aren’t always evil, but many times they are dead wrong about what happened, why it happened, and who did it. They only see it from the side of law enforcement.

Good criminal lawyers not only know the criminal process and how to talk to the prosecutors, the Courts, and the juries, but they know the forensic sciences that provide support to prove the necessary facts. The best criminal lawyers understand human behavior, psychology, sociology, the factors of eyewitness reliability and human factors, firearm and ballistic evidence, crime scene and event reconstruction, blood spatter evidence, pathology and interpretations of body trauma marks, toxicology, serology, trace and fiber evidence, DNA, fingerprints, handwriting and questioned documents, gang culture, drugs and drug trafficking and many, many, other topics.

The Nimmo Law Group lawyers have substantial expertise and experience in all of these areas of criminal law forensic science. William F. Nimmo, the founder and managing partner of the Nimmo Law Group is a former homicide and violent crime prosecutor and learned much of forensic science through law enforcement crime labs and through prosecuting serious charges. When you hire the Nimmo Law Group on a serious case, the lawyers discuss the case multiple times with each other. In effect, the client gets the benefit of the experience and the tactical thoughts of all of the lawyers.
