My practice has been largely limited the last fifteen
years to contraband forfeiture cases initiated by federal
and state agencies. I am a former criminal prosecutor
with extensive civil litigation experience. I am both
a Continuing Legal Education lecturer and author on state
and federal Contraband Forfeitures. Additionally, I am
a past president of Forfeiture Endangers American Rights,
Inc., a leading anti-forfeiture reform organization. For
more information on F.E.A.R., click

For a reference to the longstanding
nature of my work in this field and the complexity of
the cases I have handled, see: U.S.
vs. Daccarrett 6 F.3d 37 (2nd Cir. 1993). This case
highlights many of the issues found in a forfeiture case (and
many issues seldom raised). It serves as an excellent primer
on forfeiture law.
Curiously, my calling for representing
those whom the state would seek to dispossess has ancestral
precedent: click

I am, of course, available
for co-counsel, referral or direct trial or appellate
representation in forfeiture matters. To see why this
is a good idea, click
