Insanity Defense Representation

An insanity defense or not guilty by reason of insanity (NGRI) plea requires understanding the delicate nature of each case and the need for case-specific expert opinions. Only then can the defense successfully establish and prove an insanity defense. Once proven and the NGRI finding enters, the same understanding and expert opinion is required to ensure that the client is committed no more than necessary or allowable under RCW 10.77. With the dual lens of compassion and professionalism, Chase Law PLLC navigates the complexities of mental health in criminal contexts to uphold clients’ rights and achieve the best possible outcome.
