Searching Your Vehicle

The Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution works to protect citizens and their property rights. This protects citizens against wrongful search and seizure of their property. If you are pulled over for a DUI charge and your car is subsequently searched, it is crucial that your rights were respected.

If you feel that you have been falsely charged because of an illegal search related to a DUI charge, it is important to protect your rights. An experienced and knowledgeable DUI defense attorney will help you to protect your rights and ensure that your case is properly presented in court. Contact Rhode Island DUI defense lawyer, James Powderly, by calling 401-662-9006.

Probable Cause

Facing a single criminal charge can be a nerve-wracking experience. But facing multiple charges for the same incident is even more frightening. It is crucial to your defense in a DUI case that the evidence used against you was properly obtained. One of the most important things to consider is the legality of any search or seizure of your property. If there is no probable cause, the search and resulting evidence may be considered illegal. This can greatly influence the following charges:

  • Gun possession
  • Other weapons possession
  • Marijuana possession
  • Other drug possession

If you are pulled over for a DUI charge and are subsequently charged with other crimes, it is important to determine if that evidence was properly obtained.
