Yes, there are situations where the police can perform a search without a warrant. These include if you give them consent, if an area or evidence is clearly visible (Plain View Doctrine), if the search is in connection with an arrest, or in exigent circumstances. The attorneys at Karagozian & Rudolph feel that if the government did a search on you with or without a warrant, it needed to be done right and will investigate every angle of that search to determine if there is any defense. If you feel that your rights were violated, please contact us.
