Civil Forfeiture

The primary concern of anyone facing criminal charges may be the consequences of a criminal conviction. Even so, a criminal conviction is not the only reason for concern. It may come as a surprise that Minnesota authorities may seize your property if you are accused of certain criminal charges.

If Minnesota authorities claim that you obtained property or assets related to a crime or that were obtained as the proceeds of criminal activity, or used in a criminal manner, they may try to seize your assets. Understand that almost any assets can be seized under the previous criteria, including real estate, cash, vehicles, driver’s licenses, and similarly valuable property.

If you are facing the possibility of asset forfeiture after an arrest or conviction, Kuettner Legal, PLLC is here to help. Our team has well over three decades of criminal defense and forfeiture experience, which we will use to build a strong case that any forfeited assets should be returned. If this is not possible, we can help you negotiate a buyback of seized cars or other property.
Of course, we will also work to have your criminal charges dismissed if possible, which will ensure all your seized property is returned. Located in Mankato, Minnesota and serving Southern Minnesota, Kuettner Legal, PLLC is here to help you prevent the forfeiture of your assets.
