At Forfeiture USA, we understand the immense stress and potential financial devastation caused by federal asset forfeiture actions.

Attorney Sebastian Rucci, a seasoned legal professional with 27 years of experience, leverages his deep knowledge of forfeiture law to aggressively protect your assets.

What is Asset Forfeiture? The federal government can initiate asset forfeiture proceedings, seizing property believed to be connected to criminal activity. This can occur even if you haven’t been formally charged with a crime. The government’s burden of proof is substantial, and many forfeiture cases are based on insufficient evidence or procedural errors. Our firm meticulously reviews each case to identify weaknesses in the government’s position.

Our Services – Comprehensive Forfeiture Defense

  • Complaint Response: We craft a detailed answer to the government’s forfeiture complaint, vigorously defending your property rights.
  • Preliminary Hearing Representation: If a preliminary hearing was denied, we fight to secure one, presenting evidence and arguments to demonstrate the lack of probable cause.
  • Motion to Suppress: We file motions to suppress evidence obtained illegally, potentially weakening the government’s case significantly.
