Howes & Howes has specialized in search and seizure cases. As a general matter, the police need probable cause or a warrant to make an arrest or a search. There are lesser standards for other, less intrusive police actions. When the police seize evidence or make an arrest in violation of the constitution, we file a motion to suppress evidence. To know more about a motion to suppress, consult an attorney.
