Sentencing Advocacy in Capital and Non-Capital Cases. The reality of criminal defense is that most of our clients will find themselves in a sentencing proceeding. It is incumbent on us as criminal defense attorneys to begin the preparation for that moment from the beginning of the case. Sentencing advocacy is about story. It’s about finding that narrative that permits a judge or a jury to truly see your client and respond with more empathy and compassion than disgust and loathing. Mitigation, in any case, begins with the advocate and should be presented through a compelling story.
