Not all cases involve a driver’s license.
If law enforcement took your cash, vehicle, or other property during an arrest, the State may try to keep it through a civil forfeiture case.
Asset forfeiture cases:
Are separate from criminal charges
Have short and strict deadlines
Can result in permanent loss of property if ignored
Most forfeiture cases are tied to drug-related arrests, not DUI.
We help people fight asset seizure and forfeiture and work to recover property before deadlines pass.

CDL Drivers:
Your Job Is at Risk
A conviction can suspend a CDL for one year or longer. Employers can act before a case is resolved.
Early clarity matters even more for professional drivers.
Deadlines and Timing Matter
In DUI cases, driver’s license deadlines can begin right away. In forfeiture cases, short filing deadlines can determine whether property is kept or lost.
Waiting does not create more options. In some cases, it removes them.
