Manslaughter Attorney In North Carolina
What Is Manslaughter?
While the legal definition of manslaughter can vary from state to state, it generally refers to the unlawful killing of another person without lawful justification, such as self-defense. In most cases, it does not involve intent or malice. Voluntary manslaughter occurs when a death happens in the heat of passion following a sudden quarrel, while involuntary manslaughter typically involves an unintentional killing that results from reckless or negligent behavior.
These are extremely serious charges that can carry lengthy prison sentences and permanently alter the course of your life. If you’ve been accused of manslaughter, it’s essential to have a defense team that will thoroughly investigate every aspect of your case and challenge the prosecution’s evidence at every turn.

What Penalties Might I Face?
