Can I pursue asset recovery if there is also an ongoing criminal investigation against me?

Yes, civil asset recovery proceedings can run parallel to criminal investigations, though strategic coordination is essential. Courts distinguish between the civil standard of proof (balance of probabilities) and the criminal standard (beyond reasonable doubt). However, pursuing aggressive asset claims while under investigation may draw prosecutorial attention to your financial affairs. In some jurisdictions, statements made in civil proceedings can be used in criminal matters. A careful sequencing strategy — sometimes delaying certain civil steps until criminal exposure is resolved — is often advisable.
