Rucci Law: Protecting Your Assets – Defending Against Asset Forfeiture

Facing asset forfeiture is a frightening experience. At Rucci Law, we understand the immense stress and potential financial devastation that this process can inflict. In California, the government’s ability to seize your property – including bank accounts, vehicles, real estate, and business assets – is subject to strict legal limitations. We specialize in defending your constitutional rights and aggressively challenging unwarranted forfeiture claims.

What is Asset Forfeiture?

Asset forfeiture is a legal process where the government seeks to take control of your property, even if you haven’t been formally charged with a crime. There are two primary types:

• Criminal Forfeiture: Linked to a criminal prosecution. The government argues your property was used in connection with the crime.
• Civil Forfeiture: Initiated without a criminal charge. The government can seize property if they believe it was involved in illegal activity, even if the owner is innocent.

Your Constitutional Rights – And How Rucci Law Protects Them

The government’s power to seize assets is not absolute. The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the U.S. Constitution provide crucial protections. We will rigorously challenge the government’s case if:

• Lack of Probable Cause: The initial seizure was not based on sufficient evidence.
• Due Process Violations: You were not given proper notice and opportunity to be heard.
• Fruit of the Poisonous Tree: Evidence used against you was obtained illegally.
• Lack of Connection to Criminal Activity: The government cannot demonstrate a direct link between your property and the alleged crime.
