POLICE SOMETIMES USE FORFEITURE LAWS TO GET LEVERAGE OVER CRIMINAL DEFENDANTS. That is, you may be told that you will get off easier or get off totally if you give up money or property allegedly involved in drug activity, white-collar criminal activity, or even environmental law and wildlife violations, even if the underlying criminal case is weak. DON'T AGREE TO ANYTHING BEFORE YOU TALK TO A LAWYER; but even if you've already given up money and property, we may be able to help.

To Tom Royals:

“When I was a country doctor, a federal agency hauled me before a hearing examiner and tried to bar me from receiving funds for treatment of Medicare patients. You studied the file and believed in me. You fought the case in Jackson, Mississippi, Atlanta, Georgia, and in the federal district court in Biloxi, Mississippi. Many lawyers would have given up. Ultimately I was cleared as a result of your work because you believed in me and my patients. You outworked and outsmarted them. You saved my professional life and maybe indirectly helped many sick people. We appreciate it.” Doc, Mississippi

We will fight for you. We will tell you the truth.
