Understanding Civil Asset Forfeiture Civil asset forfeiture is a legal process where law enforcement agencies seize property suspected of being involved in criminal activity, even if the owner hasn’t been charged with a crime. The government doesn’t need to prove guilt; they only need to demonstrate that the property was linked to illegal activity. This can lead to the loss of significant assets, including homes, vehicles, and financial accounts.
