Amazing lawyer! He took care of my case and got me exactly what I needed in 24 hours. I had already consulted another two lawyers, and they both told me it wasn't possible. I guess they were wrong because Mr. Knight got it done!- Olim D.

I violated my felony probation with a DWI. Mr. Knight answered all my calls and got me reinstated ASAP! Seemed like he knew the district attorney and judge pretty well. Definitely the type of guy you want on your side.- Preston
Murder vs. Manslaughter Charges
While both murder and manslaughter charges are very serious and have harsh felony sentences, manslaughter is the less severely punished of the two. A homicide is termed "manslaughter" if an individual dies due to the reckless actions (or in some cases, the inaction) of another.
Murder is a felony charge when an individual kills or causes the death of another intentionally. This serious charge can result in life in prison without parole.
