Miglore, is the true definition of respectable leadership, recognized and revered by his legal peers as one of the top criminal defense attorneys.
By law, the government can take a person’s property if they suspect it is being used to conduct any criminal activity or if it has been assumed to have “facilitated” an alleged crime, such as drug trafficking, conspiracy, perjury, extortion, embezzlement and murder.
Even a motor vehicle can be seized and forfeited if the driver has had a suspended or revoked driver’s license for a DUI. Also, an automobile can be subject to seizure if it was used to “facilitate’ the crime, even if you were simply using the vehicle to meet the “victim.”
There are several defenses to these matters and recently, there have been many Appellate and Supreme Court decisions on the suppression of evidence, quashing of the arrest, the return of seized assets and dismissing certain charges upon constitutional grounds.
If you are in trouble with the Federal or State governments and are being charged with using your home, car, boat, or even bank account for any illegal activity, your personal property could be seized before going to trial.
