Rubino has the necessary tools and resources to help his clients achieve the best possible results.

Frank A. Rubino has more than 30 years of experience defending clients in high-profile federal and international criminal proceedings. Many of his most notable cases involve federal asset forfeiture, including several cases where Mr. Rubino successfully defended clients accused of importing large amounts of cocaine.

Why Consulting with a Criminal Defense Attorney is Best

Although asset seizure is a civil action, it is frequently based on criminal conduct. When your assets have been seized, it is best to consult with a criminal defense lawyer who understands the related allegations.

The seriousness of this action by the federal government should not be underestimated. The federal government does not often seize assets unless they are worth tens of thousands of dollars. And seized assets are often the first step in a case, followed by a grand jury investigation and an indictment. A proactive consultation with a defense attorney can help protect your interests and your rights.
