If Police suspect that you have profited from crime they can apply for restraining and forfeiture orders over your property.

Under the Criminal Proceeds (Recovery) Act 2009, Police and the Asset Recovery Unit can apply for restraining and forfeiture orders over property they believe to be the proceeds of crime — even without a criminal conviction. These proceedings can move fast, and the consequences of not acting promptly can be severe. Sam has extensive experience in the High Court in this area, including:

Opposing and responding to restraining orders

Applications for relief on behalf of affected parties

Representing clients at examination orders

Corresponding and negotiating with the Asset Recovery Unit
