Search and Seizure

The search and seizure is part of the police investigation, it is through it that evidence of any crime that can be used by the criminal judge will be collected in the future.

 

What often happens is that the police authority commits excesses in fulfilling the warrant, carrying out the search and seizure of materials/objects that are not described in the respective warrant. It is important that the search and seizure is accompanied by a lawyer, to avoid damages. property, disappearance of things and excessive apprehension by the police.

 

The search warrant presented by the police officers must specifically contain all the details of that activity, such as the address of the place to be executed, the name of the owner of the place/property, it must also mention the reason and purpose of that search.  Everything should be extremely detailed in this document.  For example, the police authority that enters the residence and carries out the seizure of objects that were not mentioned in the warrant, such as the suspect's wife's cell phone and employees, incur an evident excess in the search and seizure.

 

It is the lawyer who, when monitoring the search and seizure, will analyze the content of the warrant and supervise the activity and register objections when the police authority deviates from the content of the warrant.
