Reckless Homicide Attorney in East Alton, IL

Reckless Homicide Overview

Any motor vehicle can easily become a dangerous weapon in anyone's hands. It is not always the fault of the driver if an injury or death occurs as the result of a car or truck accident. However, prosecutors will attempt to make you believe that vehicular homicide or reckless homicide is your fault.

You need a lawyer who knows the legal tactics of both the prosecution and the defense. Criminal defense attorney John M. Delaney, Jr. has handled serious legal matters in Madison County since 1981. He even worked as an Illinois assistant state's attorney in the Madison County prosecutor's office for several years. He knows the tactics law enforcement officials will use against you, and he uses his strong knowledge of the law to counteract these tactics with an intense investigation of the facts.

Prosecutors will present evidence that is difficult to interpret without an experienced attorney. If you cannot counter the police experts with your own expert, who will be very expensive, it will be very difficult to even reduce your charges.
