LUZERNE COUNTY VEHICULAR MANSLAUGHTER LAWYER

Defending Against DUI Manslaughter Charges in Pennsylvania

Car accidents of any nature are taken very seriously; when these wrecks involve a suspected drunk driver, the consequences of a conviction could be potentially life changing.

The nature of these types of accidents is so serious that they are given a lot of attention by law enforcement officers, police investigators, state attorneys, and more. Therefore, it is imperative to the well-being of your future that you secure the sound legal defense of a Luzerne County criminal attorney from our firm that will pay an equal amount of attention to the representation of your case.

In general, crimes of this nature will require extensive investigation into the cause of the collision, including on-the-scene measurements of the crash taken by state police officers and blood test analyses done by blood experts in the field. These are measures taken in order to prove that the suspect was 1) responsible for causing or contributing to the accident and 2) above the state's legal limit of intoxication. Blood tests are required in cases of suspected vehicular manslaughter, specifically to allow for a more thorough assessment of the fatal collision.

It must be noted that these tests have frequently been known to yield inaccurate results that cannot be relied upon as substantial and primary evidence. In fact, it is just as easy to challenge the results of a blood test as it is to administer the test in the first place. For this reason, we can challenge the readings of a blood test and work to prove that the results do not reflect the true blood alcohol level at the time of the crash.

Vehicular Manslaughter Attorney Serving Luzerne County, PA

Vehicular manslaughter charges are handled differently than a typical DUI case. In these cases, there will often be a main witness, referred to as the traffic homicide investigator (THI) that will take intricate measurements of the scene in attempts to determine the specific cause of the collision.

In addition, certain measures such as blood test s are required, no matter what the circumstance may be. In order to accurately defend against charges of this nature you will need an equally detail-oriented criminal defense lawyer that will approach your case with attention to detail, skillful defense tactics, and aggressive representation; anything less could land you in prison for the charges that have been made in your name.
