Asset restraint and forfeiture
Proceeds of crime
Proceeds-of-crime proceedings can place homes, vehicles, accounts, businesses, and third-party interests at risk, sometimes before related criminal charges are resolved.
- Restraining orders and asset freezing
- Forfeiture and profit-assessment applications
- Third-party and jointly owned property
- Negotiation concerning restrained assets
- Related criminal and proceeds strategy
Connor identifies the property and interests affected, tests the factual and legal basis of the application, and examines how the alleged offending is said to connect with each asset.
The response is coordinated with any related criminal proceeding so that decisions in one process do not unnecessarily prejudice the other.
When to seek advice
Contact Connor promptly if you receive a restraining order, notice of application, demand for financial information, or learn that Police intend to pursue assets.
