State, local, and federal laws allow the government to take your stuff if they believe that those things were used in or acquired by a criminal act. Forfeiture laws allow the state to acquire these assets through civil proceedings which are separate from anything concerning the criminal process. Even if you were to be found not guilty in a court of law, the government could still acquire your property and assets in a forfeiture proceeding. Often this consequence is sought in and around DWIs and Drunk Driving.

If you’re faced with the loss of your car, home, or any financial assets through a Forfeiture proceeding, your first, best option is to contact a Minnesota Criminal Defense Attorney or Twin Cities DWI Lawyer.
