Was there an unlawful search and seizure?

Weapon charges are typically based upon law enforcement locating a weapon either in a person’s immediate possession or on his or her property.  In some situations, law enforcement may not have had probable cause to search a defendant, may have surpassed the grounds of a search warrant, or may have otherwise conducted an unlawful search and seizure.  A skilled Dallas weapons charges attorney may be able to use these circumstances as grounds for a motion to suppress evidence. This scenario could positively influence the outcome of a case in your favor.
