- People who have been charged with DUI or DUI manslaughter often have underlying substance abuse or emotional problems.
- DUI manslaughter and vehicular homicide charges come with serious consequences, including significant prison time, the payment of fines and the revocation of their driver's license.

What sets us apart
Because we accept a limited number of cases each year, our firm is able to devote the time needed to seek the best possible outcome for your DUI manslaughter or vehicular homicide case.

Whenever appropriate, we go to trial on these cases, developing a strong argument that fights the charges and demonstrates mitigating circumstances. We do whatever is needed to help the client move past the charge and begin again.
