    Defenses Against Manslaughter Charges

    Defending against manslaughter charges requires a deep understanding of the law and your case's specific circumstances. Our experienced team at Crenshaw & Purvis will explore various defense strategies tailored to your unique situation, which can include:

    • Self-Defense: If you acted to protect yourself or others from imminent harm, self-defense might be a viable defense strategy.
    • Lack of Intent: Demonstrating that you did not have the intent to cause harm or death is crucial to building a defense.
    • Alibi: Providing a solid alibi or evidence that you were not present at the scene when the incident occurred can be a strong defense against manslaughter charges.
    • Procedural Errors: We can scrutinize the evidence, police procedures, and witness statements to identify any irregularities or errors in the investigation or legal process that could benefit your defense.
