Asset Forfeiture in Los Angeles
Los Angeles Drug Crimes Defense Lawyer
When money or assets are obtained through illegal means, federal and state law enforcement authorities have the right to forfeit those assets. Many people accused or charged with a drug crime experience asset forfeiture. For example, if you used a vehicle to transport marijuana, the police can confiscate your vehicle. In some cases, the police may confiscate larger assets, such as a home, if they believe the money used to purchase home was obtained through illegal drug activity.
It should also be mentioned that you don’t need to be charged or under investigation for a drug crime for the police or government to seize your assets. The police just need to prove that the money or assets were obtained from the profits of an illegal activity.
If the police or government has confiscated or tried to forfeit your assets, it’s important to obtain the legal counsel of a skilled attorney as soon as possible. After receiving a notice that your assets are going to be forfeited, you only have around 30 days to file a claim seeking the return of your assets. If you do not file this claim, you will permanently waive your right to seek the return of your assets in the future.
