Asset forfeiture occurs when a person suspected of a crime is required to hand over his or her assets to a particular law enforcement body. The suspected person may be required to forfeit their assets as well as any money. There are a number of different orders that may be made in relation to asset forfeiture which will require different obligations. Our Criminal Lawyers are experienced in the area of asset forfeiture and can advise you on your rights under an asset forfeiture order.
An asset forfeiture order may be made in the following situations:
- A person has been charged with a serious offence;
- A person is about to be charged with a serious offence; and
- A person has been convicted of a serious offence.
It is important to note that an asset forfeiture order may be made even before you are charged or if charged, before a conviction is found.
