An accident behind the wheel of your car can take a deadly turn if it resulted in the death of another person. A vehicular manslaughter charge creates stress, fear and dread. An immediate plea of guilty after speaking to law enforcement ignores not only the complexity of this type of criminal case, but also your rights.
At the law office of James S. Sweeney, we focus on the facts related to a serious criminal matter. Far too much is at stake not to assert your right not only to be silent, but to secure the help of an experienced and knowledgeable criminal defense lawyer.
Take action immediately following an arrest for vehicular manslaughter, and contact us at 949-273-2676 or toll free at 877-648-3603.
