He is also an expert on restitution and criminal fines, the RICO statute, and victims' rights, all of which are covered in his forfeiture treatise. He has argued over 100 federal criminal and civil appeals in all circuits and participated in the litigation of several U.S. Supreme Court cases dealing with forfeiture issues.

    Before entering private practice, Mr. Smith, a graduate of Yale Law School, was Deputy Chief of the Asset Forfeiture Office, Criminal Division of the United States Department of Justice, and an Assistant United States Attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia, where he prosecuted procurement fraud and other white collar cases. He received the NACDL President's Commendation Award in 1993 and 1994. He served as a part-time associate Independent Counsel in the investigation of former Secretary of Agriculture Michael Espy in 1995.
