Intoxication assault or intoxication manslaughter are both extremely serious charges. If you have been charged with either of these crimes, it is imperative that you seek out an experienced Texas DWI defense attorney as soon as possible. These charges are filed in cases where a drunk driving accident leads to the serious injury or wrongful death of someone other than the allegedly intoxicated driver. Intoxication manslaughter and assault charges are unique in that the prosecution does not need to prove anything relating to intent to harm. The prosecution only needs to prove that you were intoxicated at the time of the accident.

This means that the odds are often stacked against you from the beginning. And with so much at stake (potentially twenty years in prison for intoxicated manslaughter and ten years for intoxicated assault), it is extremely important that you seek professional legal assistance. An experienced Texas drunk driving lawyer can examine your case and help you determine the best course of action for your case. In other words, an experienced attorney can make sure that you have a fair trial and a fighting chance. If you are being charged with intoxication manslaughter or intoxication assault, contact the Texas DUI attorneys at Grossman Law Offices and make sure your case is fairly represented.
