Steps You Can Take When Faced with Vehicular Manslaughter Charges

two crashed cars after an accident

Facing possible manslaughter charges after a deadly car accident can leave you feeling lost and worried about the future.

How do you protect yourself in the aftermath of a tragedy?

Atlanta Defense Attorney Jeff Manciagli outlines the steps to take.

Get to a Safe Place

The very first thing you need to do after an accident is get yourself to a safe place if you’re able to. If any vehicle involved in the incident has fallen into water or caught on fire or is in danger of being hit by more oncoming traffic, try to assist other conscious passengers to safety. Call 911 for help.

Cooperate with Law Enforcement

When the police arrive, cooperate to the fullest extent possible. Remain calm, avoid blame-throwing, and share all insurance and contact information the officers ask of you.

Never Admit Fault

You may feel a lot of guilt and confusion and even have little memory of the collision. No matter how you feel, do not admit any fault. Even if the situation makes it look obvious that you were to blame, admitting fault can provide proof to convict you in a court case.

Contact a Defense Attorney

Once you’re safely at home, contact a defense attorney.

You need a law expert on your side who knows which arguments and lines of evidence will work in your favor. The prosecution will aim to prove that negligence or recklessness on your part caused the accident. A defense attorney can show how vehicle defects, weather and road conditions, and even the other party’s own driving decisions contributed to the incident.

Contact Jeff Manciagli for a zero-obligation consultation if you have any questions.

    I was very pleased with the services Mr. Manciagli provided. He was professional, explained everything throughly, and most importantly Mr. Manciagli was able to get my case dismissed. I would refer him to anyone seeking legal council. My case was handled with absolute discretion and expertise.

    Mr. Manciagli has done so much in so little time. In less than one month he was able to contact the courts and got me early termination for my supervised release. I am so grateful, he works fast and always stayed in contact with me. I highly recommend my attorney to everyone I am very satisfied with Mr. Manciagli. Very grateful to him for all he has done since the day I met him. He's just the best.

    Client

    Mr. Manciagli has lived and traveled all over the world, including Latin America, and his legal work has taken him to Colombia, Mexico, Guatemala, Panama, and Jamaica. It was important for me, as a foreigner in the U.S., to have an attorney who understood me from a cultural level and who I could speak to in Spanish. If you or a loved one needs a criminal defense attorney, Jeff Manciagli is the attorney you should call.

    Client

    N.C.

    My lawyer in FL recommended Jeff when I got arrested in GA and didn't know what to do. I got pulled over in a cash-cow speed trap town 20 miles above the state line and they called a K-9 unit and got probable cause to search my car. I was livid and felt so violated. Luckily I hired the best of the best. Jeff always called/emailed me back promptly when I had questions about my case, and Always spoke to me as an equal. He took care of everything and when it came time to go to court was honest and logical in discussing what was best and how my plea would affect my future. Under his council I felt calm and in control. I was facing 3 misdemeanor charges and got them all dropped on the condition that I do a small amount of community service, pay a fine, and don't get in any more trouble for a few months. I didn't even get points on my license for the original speeding ticket. At the end of the day, money is replaceable- my time and freedom are not. If I or anyone I know ever has trouble in GA again, I will be calling Jeff.
