Mitigation Services for Capital Murder Cases

At Mitigation Concepts, Inc., we are dedicated to providing thorough research and reporting that supports law firms defending clients in capital murder cases.

Mitigation Concepts, Inc., is a service company that provides research into the background of a person accused of capital murder in Texas, generally when the State of Texas seeks the death penalty.

The Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, Art. 37.071, Sec. 2 (a)(1) states that in the punishment phase of a capital murder case, “Evidence may be presented by the state and the defendant or the defendant’s counsel as to any matter that the court deems relevant to sentence, including evidence of the defendant’s background or character or the circumstances of the offense that mitigates against the imposition of the death penalty”. In that regard, Mitigation Concepts, Inc. investigates the background of a person on trial, their family, education, mental, social, and other history, and provides the information to trial counsel.
