Asset Recovery, or Forfeiture, refers to the confiscation of assets or property allegedly acquired through the proceeds of a crime. If you are suspected of criminal activity, authorities can seize your assets even without a formal charge.
The physical property may be items that were directly involved in the illegal activity or seized due to illegal activity, including your home. If you’ve received an Asset Forfeiture Notice of Seizure, you must act quickly to file a recovery claim. If the deadline passes for recovery, you can lose all chances of gaining your property back. After a length of time, seized assets are typically sold at auction.
