This is hard to even type out, but my brother got arrested in California and the charges are serious, like life changing serious. His court appointed attorney barely returns calls and we have no clue how any of this works. What should we look for in a lawyer, and how do we find someone who can actually handle this kind of case?

Man, that is a brutal spot to be in, and the court appointed situation is rough when the case is this heavy. You want to grill every candidate hard on their actual trial experience, how many murder cases they have taken to verdict, what their win rate looks like, and how they plan to attack the forensic evidence. Plenty of firms with a murder defense lawyer on staff lay out their approach to these charges online, one of them you can check out here https://arkadybukhlawfirm.com/practice-areas/criminal-defense-federal-crimes/murder/ .

Get a second opinion on anything the first lawyer says. These cases move fast and one bad piece of advice early can close doors that are impossible to reopen later, so trust your gut and verify everything.
