Is there anywhere for someone to learn about the process that exists to RECOVER civil asset forfeiture funds?

  You have to sue the government body that took your funds. Get a good lawyer and pray, basically.

    The government body will refuse to return the money voluntarily if you sue.[0] [0]: https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20180508/10330739804/cbp-sued-seizing-41000-airline-passenger-then-refusing-to-give-it-back-unless-she-promised-not-to-sue.shtml https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20180508/10330739804/cbp-s...

      And what percent of the time did they EVER return all of it voluntarily?

      That's a different kind of suit. The first suit to is to prove your innocence (ugh) to get the money returned. The second suit is to complain about the civil rights violations.
