Best Answer

No. A lawyer or attorney is someone who files paperwork and argues case law in defense or in prosecution of an individual in a court of law. Or, in civil law represents individuals and/or businesses against legal challenges where parties are seeking either money, or property - this can either be done in a court of law or as an arbitrator.

A detective is someone who seeks evidence, and conducts interviews to find the truth to the best of their ability.

What kind of lawyer do you get if your family member was murdered?

You don't need to hire a lawyer because the person who murdered your family member will be put on trial by the DA and the state. If you need to prove that someone did the murder I would find a private detective and do the leg work to turn over to the DA. Your best bet is probably a retired police detective who knows what to do.
