    Smith, David B.


    DAVID B. SMITH is a partner in the firm of English & Smith in Alexandria, Virginia. He specializes in the defense of federal criminal cases, as well as seizures and forfeitures, and represents both plaintiffs and defendants in civil RICO cases. In his 1996 book on the controversy over forfeiture, A License to Steal, Professor Leonard W. Levy describes Mr. Smith as "the nation's foremost authority on forfeiture." He is Co-Chair of the NACDL's Forfeiture Abuse Task Force and Vice-Chair of the ABA's RICO, Forfeitures and Civil Remedies Committee. He is also a frequent lecturer on forfeiture development and has appeared on many television and radio talk shows.

    Before entering private practice, Mr. Smith, a graduate of Yale Law School, was deputy chief of the Asset Forfeiture Office, Criminal Division at the Department of Justice and an Assistant United States Attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia. 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. Mr. Smith has litigated a number of significant U.S. Supreme Court cases in his areas of expertise.
