Advocate Ofir Sternberg

Complex financial investigations

Money Laundering and Asset Forfeiture

Defense in investigations involving alleged laundering, prohibited property, financial offenses, organized activity, and extensive seizure or forfeiture requests.

Focused representation under Israeli law

The legal analysis begins with the facts, the available record, and the procedural posture. In matters involving money laundering and asset forfeiture, early decisions may shape the evidence, the available remedies, and the course of the proceeding.

The firm represents clients before Israeli courts, investigative authorities, enforcement agencies, and other competent bodies. Advice is tailored to the individual matter; it is not based on a one-size-fits-all formula.

Representative matters

The scope of representation may include the following:

  • Financial investigations and coordinated arrests
  • Banking, business, cash, and digital-asset evidence
  • Temporary seizure and forfeiture proceedings
  • Parallel tax, licensing, and criminal exposure

How the matter is handled

A disciplined process helps preserve options and keeps the client informed at each material stage.

  • Map the transactions, entities, accounts, and alleged predicate conduct
  • Distinguish legitimate business activity from the prosecution theory
  • Challenge unnecessary or disproportionate restraint of assets
  • Coordinate the financial and criminal defense strategies

An individual legal assessment

No two cases are identical. The applicable strategy depends on the evidence, deadlines, jurisdiction, prior proceedings, and the practical effect of the dispute on the client’s life or business.
