When your car is seized and impounded by U.S. Customs & Border Patrol because they detained you or your family for suspicion of alien smuggling, you will receive a letter in the mail. The Notice of Seizure and Information to Claimants will include an Election of Proceedings. How do you want to try getting your vehicle back? If you file a Petition in mitigation or an Offer in Compromise, you will be giving up a large part of your due process afforded by law. There seems to be no time limit! There seems to be no clear process for how CBP decides if they will give your car back! In the examples we provide in the video, our clients spent anywhere from 3 1/2 months to 10 months more time without their car. They come to us, and we have to withdraw their petition and start from scratch. How long can you go without your car–especially if you’re still making payments? Call us at San Diego Defenders Forfeiture Law Firm at (619) 258-8888, and we’ll explain that this video is not legal advice. However, we have a very, very good track record of getting all the vehicles returned if we accept your case. Less than a DUI, payment plans, and we do all the work for you so you don’t step on your own foot! Call us today at (619) 258-8888.
