House search 1×1
What you need to know when the police are at your door.
Emilio Escobar:
Just hypothetically: What should I do if the police come to my door one day to search my house?
Answer:
Hello Emilio
The public prosecutor’s office orders a house search if it already has a suspicion and now wants to seize evidence, objects or assets in particular.
In such situations, it is important to remain calm and respectful. First of all, the search warrant should be read carefully. A lawyer should then be contacted immediately – while the house is still being searched.
Information should only be given to the police in consultation with your lawyer. If a cell phone, computer or documents are seized, it makes sense to demand that they be sealed immediately.
