Colorado Defense Attorney Publishes Chapter in DUI Vehicular Homicide Book
Denver, CO (PRWEB) December 17, 2013 -- Colorado attorney Jay Tiftickjian knows a thing or two about defending a client charged with a serious accident stemming from a DUI case. A Colorado Vehicular Homicide conviction usually leads to a long prison sentence followed by parole and a steep restitution order. These cases can be devastating to all parties involved, which is why it is important to have the assistance of a defense lawyer that understands the ins and outs of the charges.
In Tiftickjian's contribution, he discusses four uncommon defenses to a vehicular homicide charge. Issues such as proximate and intervening causes, involuntary intoxication, and choice of evils can sometimes raise a valid defense to a DUI charge or allegation of a fatal accident.
