Specialized Expertise in Asset Forfeiture Defense

  • What is Asset Forfeiture? Asset forfeiture is a legal process where the government seizes property believed to be connected to criminal activity. This can occur even if you haven’t been formally charged with a crime.
  • How Does It Happen? Federal agencies, like the IRS, FBI, and DEA, often initiate asset forfeiture cases based on allegations, not convictions. These cases frequently rely on the seizure of property linked to suspected criminal activity, such as drug trafficking, money laundering, or tax evasion.
  • Our Approach: We employ a comprehensive, personalized approach to every case. We meticulously analyze the evidence, identify weaknesses in the government’s case, and develop a tailored defense strategy.
  • Our Services: We provide legal representation throughout the entire forfeiture process, including:
    • Verified Claim Filing: We will file a verified claim challenging the government’s seizure.
    • Answer to Complaint: We will vigorously defend you against any civil asset forfeiture complaint.
    • Preliminary Hearing Defense: We’ll aggressively contest denied preliminary hearings.
    • Motion to Suppress & Dismiss: We will pursue every available legal avenue to suppress evidence and dismiss the case.
