Asset Forfeiture: Practice and Procedure in State and Federal Courts, Third Edition

This updated and expanded third edition of the American Bar Association's best-selling book, Asset Forfeiture: Practice and Procedure in State and Federal Courts is a useful "How to," guide to common legal and practical issues faced by attorneys litigating cases involving asset forfeiture.

This book is the only one of its kind that covers the federal statutes and the laws of the 50 states and the District of Columbia. It identifies common principles and then translates those into understandable, logical steps, and procedures.

In this new edition, there is expanded coverage on asset forfeiture as restitution for victims, as litigation in this area of law expands from its traditional application in cases involving illegal narcotics and deeper into the realm of white collar crime. This book is a vital and accessible tool for anyone that deals in the increasingly utilized and oft-times misunderstood realm of Asset Forfeiture.
