Vehicular manslaughter occurs when a death takes place that involves the reckless and/or negligent driving of a motor vehicle. It often coincides with DUI (driving under the influence) of alcohol or drugs. Vehicular manslaughter charges can result in very serious penalties if an individual is convicted: up to 30 years in jail or prison, heavy fines, community service, probation, driver’s license suspension or revocation, and parole. In order to protect yourself from receiving a conviction or very serious penalties, you can take action and contact an experienced lawyer at our firm.
