Search of business premises and seizure of items

Nearly 40 questions and answers about searches of business premises. When can a search be conducted? Who decides on a search? What to look for in the documents authorising the search? Can you refuse to allow law enforcement to enter the premises? Do you have to turn over your computer password? Can you make a recording of the search? Should you sign the protocol? Is there any way to prepare for a search? Lawyers from the firm’s Business Crime practice explain.
