SPOKANE, WA · VEHICULAR ASSAULT
CLASS B FELONY
Vehicular assault is charged when a driver is accused of causing substantial bodily harm to another person while driving recklessly, while under the influence, or with disregard for the safety of others.
Vehicular assault is a Class B felony. A conviction can mean prison time, a felony record, license revocation and lasting financial consequences.
These cases often involve accident reconstruction, medical records and blood testing — evidence that must be carefully reviewed.
Chris Bugbee has handled nearly 200 jury cases and brings 30+ years of criminal law experience to every felony he defends.
As a former Spokane County prosecutor, he knows how vehicular assault cases are investigated and charged.
WHAT TO KNOW
The State must prove that the driving caused the injury and that the driving met the legal standard. Causation is often disputed.
Blood test procedures, accident reconstruction and the injuries themselves can all be challenged.
Do not discuss the collision with police or insurers before speaking with a lawyer.
