Many investigations start with a house search and thus with no forewarning for those involved, be it privately, at the workplace or in the company. The Internet is full of good advice about what to do in this situation, but in practice such advice is of little use when officers are suddenly standing at the door with a search warrant in their hands. The only thing that really helps in dealing with such an unforeseen situation wisely is to call a trusted lawyer immediately, which the officers are required to allow.
We are very experienced in managing both major and minor searches, and in many cases a single phone call will suffice to clarify the situation with investigators and thus prevent any unpleasant complications for the parties involved.
Ideally, we would be on the scene immediately to steer the process with the investigators in such a way that the parties involved do not have to bother themselves or others with the matter. In many cases, the groundwork for the outcome of the proceedings is laid at this early stage.
