    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can preventive seizure be revoked?
    Yes, through review before the Review Court or subsequent appeals up to the Court of Cassation, it is possible to obtain total or partial revocation of the preventive seizure, as well as its replacement with less restrictive measures.
    How long does it take to obtain asset release?
    The Milan Review Court must rule within ten days of receiving the documents. Timely defensive intervention allows the procedure to be immediately activated and supporting documentation to be filed in favour of revocation.
    Can the entrepreneur's personal assets be seized?
    Yes. In the case of equivalent seizure — provided for numerous economic offences — the restraint may extend to the defendant's entire personal estate to the extent corresponding to the profit or price of the offence, even if the assets have no direct connection to the disputed transactions.
    What to do immediately upon receiving notice of a preventive seizure?
    It is essential to immediately consult a criminal lawyer specialised in real precautionary measures. The deadlines for review are mandatory (ten days) and any delay can irreparably prejudice the chances of obtaining asset release. Do not carry out any transactions on accounts or assets before receiving legal assistance.
    What is the difference between preventive seizure and confiscation?
    Preventive seizure is a temporary precautionary measure, ordered during the investigation or trial, to prevent the asset from being dissipated or the offence from continuing. Confiscation, on the other hand, is the definitive ablatory measure ordered with the conviction, which permanently transfers the asset to the State. The defence aims to prevent the seizure from consolidating into a definitive confiscation.
