Murder and Manslaughter Lawyers NSW
Facing a Murder or Manslaughter Charge? We’re Here to Help.
What are Murder and Manslaughter Offences?
Murder and manslaughter are among the most serious criminal offences, involving the unlawful killing of another person. Both offences carry serious penalties, including life imprisonment.
At Kingston Fox Lawyers, we handle murder and manslaughter cases and are experienced in Supreme Court matters. There differences between the two are:
- Murder has four bases of liability: an intent to kill, or an intent to inflict grievous bodily harm, or reckless indifference to human life, or the commission of a crime punishable by life imprisonment or 25 years imprisonment. It is the most serious criminal offence and carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.
- Manslaughter covers all other unlawful homicides other than murder.

“A difficult matter that was resolved in my favour”
“Alexandra Sarmed offered me exceptional service and professional assistance with a difficult matter that was resolved in my favour. I couldn’t have asked for any more and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone in future. Nor will I ever go anywhere else for legal advice myself. I know if she couldn’t help me she would steer me to the right person for the job.”
“Frank, understanding, hardworking, and knowledgeable”
“We were incredibly lucky to be referred to Alexandra Sarmed for a complex set of charges against my adult child. From the first meeting, we were struck by her sense of humanity. She supported us throughout the process with her frankness, understanding, warmth, humour, hard work and knowledge. Alexandra found an amazing Barrister and together they achieved the right outcome. We will be forever thankful to Alexandra Sarmed.”
“Sympathetic and extremely reassuring”
“Erin was wonderful at a time of extreme stress for me. She listened to me and provided professional and helpful advice. She was sympathetic and clear-thinking, expertly guiding me through a process that was foreign to me. This was extremely reassuring. I would strongly recommend Kingston Fox Lawyers to anybody needing legal representation.”
