Any Illinois homicide or manslaughter charge places the defendant at serious risk. It’s sometimes necessary to use expert analysis and testimony on any of several points — ballistics, toxicology, psychology or even mental competence to stand trial. Some clients can afford private defense counsel, but cannot afford to hire qualified experts to work on the technical aspects of the case. In some cases, the Court may order that the state or the government compensate experts appointed to assist the accused in defense of his or her charges.
