Crucially, in many forfeiture cases, you don’t even need to be charged with a crime to have your assets targeted. The government relies on suspicion and often relies on circumstantial evidence.

Your Rights During Forfeiture Proceedings

You have significant constitutional rights that must be respected. Rucci Law will aggressively defend these rights throughout the entire process:

• Due Process: The government must demonstrate a sufficient connection between your property and criminal activity.
• Fourth Amendment (Search and Seizure): Challenging illegal searches and seizures.
• Fifth Amendment (Self-Incrimination): Protecting you from compelled testimony or evidence.
• Sixth Amendment (Right to Counsel): Your right to legal representation is paramount.

We meticulously examine the evidence against you, searching for procedural errors, lack of probable cause, or insufficient evidence to justify the seizure. We won’t simply defend against the charges; we’ll challenge the validity of the forfeiture itself.
