When a DUI Charge Goes Horribly Wrong.

Being charged with a DUI is obviously very serious, but when the charge is DUI manslaughter it truly is a matter of life and death.  In this particular case everyone is devastated…the victim, the families, and the accused.  Even if your criminal record has been spotless up until that point the consequences may result in years of prison time.

Here is what a conviction of DUI manslaughter could entail… fifteen years of imprisonment and a $10,000 fine.  No life could ever be the same after that!  And you must never, ever leave the scene.  That could result in up to 30 years behind bars.  Everything you see or do in the aftermath of this event will be carefully considered.

Without experienced, sophisticated representation your chances in court are slim and none.  Your attorney must be a veteran of these types of cases.  Just such a background is found in the half-century of combined criminal law experience of Kidder and Bennett.  If you are charged in Pinellas County FL call DUI manslaughter attorneys Nat Kidder and Bill Bennett at (727) 821-8000.
