Police Raid Legal Rights

Summary

Police typically need a search warrant to enter your home. A judge must authorize no-knock entries if theres a belief of immediate danger or evidence destruction. If no charges are laid, consider discussing the incident with a lawyer to explore potential remedies, such as filing a complaint. You can file complaints with the Alberta Serious Incident Response Team (ASIRT) or the Professional Standards Branch (PSB). To determine if a judge ordered a no-knock warrant, request records from the court or seek legal representation. Resources like the Law Society of Alberta Lawyer Referral Service and Legal Aid Alberta can help you find a lawyer.
