Why Hire Our Firm

Police Can Make Mistakes During Searches

The police are required to follow certain rules when conducting a search. These rules can be very complicated. If these rules are not followed to the letter, a motion to suppress the evidence found during an illegal search and seizure can be filed by an attorney. We are equipped to investigate your claim and provide the legal advice you need. If the evidence in your case is not allowed because it was found illegally, you may be able to have your case dismissed.

There are many different situations where a search might be allowed without a warrant, which can include:

  • Consent search – If given permission, police can legally seize any evidence discovered.
  • Plain view search – This is evidence located in an area police can access or that can be seen out in the open
  • Search during arrest – A search for protection of police can be made during an arrest to look for weapons or evidence that might be destroyed.
  • Search of a car at traffic stop – Vehicles can be searched during a legal traffic stop, if police believe the vehicle may contain something illegal.
  • Search for an emergency purpose – If taking time to get a warrant would affect public safety or if important evidence might be lost.
