Columbus Vehicular Homicide Lawyers - Ohio DUI and Fatal Car Accident Attorneys
When a motor vehicle accident involving DUI/OVI, speeding, fleeing the police or reckless endangerment results in loss of life, a driver can be charged with vehicular manslaughter or vehicular homicide depending on whether there is criminal intent. These are serious charges.
Upon conviction, you could potentially be facing harsh penalties such as one to five years in prison and a driver’s license suspension anywhere from five years to a lifetime. The key factor to determining how severe the penalties will be is whether or not the prosecutor can prove there was criminal intent involved.

We have extensive experience handling these cases and have the credibility to negotiate with the prosecution and fight aggressively for your rights in court.
