Asset Forfeiture

Were You a Victim of Asset Forfeiture in Michigan?

When Authorities Invade Your Business, It Becomes Matthew R. Abel's Business

If you have been accused of marijuana possession, trafficking or distribution, and you have been subject to asset forfeiture by law enforcement, you should seek the experienced counsel of a skilled marijuana defense lawyer. Attorney Matthew Abel looks upon asset forfeiture as an abuse of the law and an overreaching of the governments power.

Asset forfeiture typically occurs when law enforcement suspects that a home or building is the headquarters for an illegal operation such as a suspected "grow house" or marijuana cultivation facility. They could also consider money or certain possessions to be financial gains from an illegal business activity and therefore, ripe for confiscation.

Mr. Abel has been a longtime marijuana rights activist. His Cannabis Counsel law firm in Detroit could be all that stands between you and the government concerning your private possessions.

For more than two decades, Mr. Abel has spoken loudly and clearly for the rights of people like you. He has made waves, ruffled feathers and raised eyebrows across the state with his impassioned defense of marijuana users. He has stood up to the legal establishment. He has run for political office. He has lobbied, and continues to lobby, for long-overdue reforms to marijuana laws in Michigan and nationwide.

Asset forfeiture must be stopped in its tracks. When your arrest has put your hard-earned possessions in danger of confiscation, contact Mr. Abel immediately from wherever you are in the state. 1-248-866-0864.

Categories of property that are often included in asset forfeiture actions include:

  • Motor Vehicles
  • Houses
  • Cash
  • Boats
  • Bank Accounts
  • Valuable personal possessions (jewelry, electronics, etc.)

Matthew R. Abel fights to protect your rights and possessions during forfeiture proceedings. He will match prosecutors strategy for strategy. He seriously, openly questions every aspect of your arrest, traffic stop, border issue, search warrant, search and seizure, and drug test. Few defense lawyers in Michigan are as big a believer in the constitutionality of individual marijuana use as Matthew R. Abel.
