When the government tries to take your property, the stakes are incredibly high.

Civil forfeiture cases are complex. They often grow out of a criminal investigation, but they follow an entirely different legal process. Successfully defending these cases requires experience, strategy, and an attorney who knows how to present a compelling case.

Whether it's your home, your vehicle, or other property, we're prepared to fight to protect what matters to you.

A strong defense starts with having all the facts.

When evidence is missing or isn't being provided, we don't simply wait and hope it shows up. We take action.

In this case, after repeated requests for a dash camera video went unanswered, Patrick O'Keefe filed a motion asking the court to require the evidence be turned over. Every piece of evidence matters, and we're committed to making sure our clients receive the fair process they're entitled to under the law.

Sometimes protecting your rights means fighting for the evidence before the case even begins.

Sometimes the right opportunity comes from the right conversation.

For Sarah Reddypogu, that conversation happened during her senior-year internship with the Lansing Police Department. What started as career advice led to a day of shadowing at O'Keefe Law-and she quickly realized she'd found the place where she wanted to begin her career.

Now, as our Director of Client Relations, Sarah is often one of the first people clients meet. Her passion for criminal defense and genuine care for people make her an invaluable part of our team.

We're glad she found us-and even more grateful she's here.
