DUI Manslaughter, Vehicular Manslaughter, and Involuntary Manslaughter

DUI manslaughter: causing a fatal accident while driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
Vehicular manslaughter: a fatality resulting from excessive speed, reckless driving, or other gross negligence behind the wheel
Involuntary manslaughter: assault with a knife or other weapon (or even bare hands), or any intentional act that results in the unintended death of another person

A conviction for manslaughter can result in a very lengthy prison sentence in San Bernardino and Riverside.

Defending Against Manslaughter Charges in San Bernardino and Riverside

Since 1980, we have defended many citizens charged with manslaughter. Our San Bernardino and Riverside criminal defense firm includes former prosecutors with insight into how charges are brought and the ability to assess the evidence in the case, and build a strong defense for you.

In a DUI or vehicular homicide case, we seek to show that our client was not knowingly drunk or indifferent to the safety of others. We examine police reports, witness statements, and any physical evidence to prove there was no intent or reckless disregard. We may use an accident reconstruction expert to show how the other persons or factors contributed to the accident.
In an involuntary manslaughter case involving a fight or assault, we may argue self-defense, and we vigorously confront the version of events as portrayed by the police or witnesses.

Our goal is have charges dismissed or reduced to a lesser offense (such as assault or reckless driving), which carries a much less severe penalty in San Bernardino or Riverside. If we cannot negotiate a favorable plea and the case proceeds to trial, we can present formidable arguments to a jury on your behalf.
