Vehicular manslaughter is a form of involuntary manslaughter which occurs when a driver who is driving negligently and/or recklessly, or is driving under the influence (DUI), or disobeys a traffic law and causes an accident which results in the death of another person. While this is a crime of negligence and does not require the intent to cause injury or death to another, a vehicular manslaughter charge may still result in a prison sentence of up to 10 years in certain circumstances. The level of the manslaughter charge is based on whether the facts indicate the defendant was acting with gross negligence in operating the vehicle or simple negligence. It is very important to contact us today if you have been charged with a crime.
With her experience and utilizing accident reconstruction experts, engineers and an independent forensic toxicology analysis, Attorney Le and her staff will create the appropriate defense strategy to enable you to avoid a conviction for vehicular manslaughter. When alcohol or drugs are involved, law enforcement agencies and prosecuting attorneys are more than inclined to believe that you caused the accident and resulting fatality- when another driver, road or weather conditions or other factors may have actually been the cause.
