Charges our homicide attorneys in Bloomington, IL defend against include, but are not limited to:

• Murder and homicide
• Manslaughter and involuntary manslaughter
• Reckless homicide
• Attempted murder

The difference between murder and involuntary manslaughter has mostly to do with intention. A person who unintentionally kills an individual, without lawful justification, commits involuntary manslaughter if they recklessly performed an action which was likely to cause death or great bodily harm.

However, if the reckless action that caused death involved a vehicle, then the crime is reckless homicide. These are challenging cases, but you can be certain our lawyers are up to the challenge.
