We understand the immense financial and emotional toll that asset forfeiture can take, and we are committed to fiercely protecting your rights and recovering your property.

Understanding Asset Forfeiture
Federal asset forfeiture is a legal process where the government seeks to take property believed to be connected to criminal activity. While the government must demonstrate a link between the property and illegal activity, the burden of proof often falls on the individual owner. Our firm employs strategic legal tactics to challenge these allegations, meticulously examining the evidence and pursuing every available defense.

Our Services in Woodland Hills & Beyond
We offer a comprehensive suite of services designed to address every stage of an asset forfeiture case, including:

  • Verified Claim Challenges: We file detailed challenges to the forfeiture complaint, meticulously outlining the legal basis for our defense.
  • Answer to Forfeiture Complaints: We prepare and file robust answers, specifically addressing the government’s allegations.
  • Preliminary Hearing Defense: If a preliminary hearing was denied, we aggressively advocate for its reinstatement and challenge the legal grounds for denial.
  • Motion to Suppress and Dismiss: We file motions to suppress illegally obtained evidence and dismiss the forfeiture case based on procedural defects.
