At Bailey & Galyen, our criminal defense attorneys handle all types of charges involving homicide, including
- murder or attempted murder. We defend people charged with intentionally killing another human being. We handle first degree murder, involving premeditation and deliberation, as well as felony murder, where a death results from the commission of a felony.
- voluntary manslaughter. We handle the defense of homicide charges where the person was slain in the heat of passion or without premeditation.
- involuntary manslaughter. If you were acting negligently or recklessly and caused the death of another person, you may be charged with involuntary manslaughter. We will help you protect your rights when facing involuntary manslaughter charges.
- vehicular homicide. In Texas, you can be charged with a crime for negligently or recklessly causing the death of another human being while operating a motor vehicle.
A homicide charge is the most serious criminal allegation you can face, with the direst consequences upon conviction.
