"Justice consists not in being neutral between right and wrong, but in finding out the right and upholding it, wherever found, against the wrong."​ Theodore Roosevelt, 1916.At Robbins & Curtin, I was granted the opportunity to combat Arizona forfeiture abuse by those who have sworn an oath to administer justice . For far too long, our county prosecutors have ignored their duty and obligation to administer justice. Rather, these prosecutors, compete with each other for the most wins, while ignoring their duty to obtain justice. Others even profit from their "wins."Unfortunately, Arizona's forfeiture statutes nearly require individuals to retain counsel, as the property owner is always at a disadvantage. These statutes are not designed to let the average person succeed; they are complicated, misleading, and full of pitfalls, which has and will result in many attorneys, and even more individuals, losing on a procedural mistake, such as a clerical error. If your assets have been seized, Arizona's statutes require you to act IMMEDIATELY, for if you delay, your assets will be forfeited; you will NOT be given a second chance. The very best thing you can do after your property is seized is to call a CIVIL litigator, NOT A CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY!As an attorney with Robbins & Curtin, I work under Joel B. Robbins in prosecuting violations of individual's constitutional rights under the Civil Rights Act, 1983. Robbins & Curtin's law practice now includes defending asset forfeiture cases, to give property owners a fighting chance against the government machine.
