Case Study

We had previously represented our client in a criminal case involving charges of drug cultivation. Due to police investigations into their criminal matter, our client’s home was subjected to a confiscation and restraining order. If unchallenged, a confiscation order can mean that the police can seize and sell a client’s assets should they be convicted of the criminal charge. As their representative, we acted quickly to apply for an exclusion order to protect our client’s interest in their home. Ultimately, the restraining order placed on our client’s home was set aside, and our client could retain their interest in the property despite having been convicted of some criminal charges.
