Vehicular Homicide Defense Lawyer

Vehicular Homicide Charges in Mason City, Des Moines, and Cedar Rapids

Vehicular Homicide is an extremely serious charge caused when someone is driving while intoxicated and as a result another is unintentionally killed.  If you or someone you know has been arrested for vehicular homicide it is imperative you contact a criminal defense lawyer in Iowa to protect your constitutional rights.  The penalties for this crime if convicted are extremely harsh, with a mandatory prison sentence of 25 years.  There is rarely any leniency for this crime.  In addition, restitution to the victim's family in the amount of $150,000. is also required.  This is not a charge to take lightly; your future and freedom depend on how experienced and skilled your vehicular manslaughter defense attorney is. At McGuire Law Firm we have over 40 years of experience in handling all types of criminal charges and can provide you excellent legal defense throughout Iowa, including Mason City, Davenport, Des Moines, Sioux City and Cedar Rapids.
