Doug Mentes, Esq. consulted Stephen Hébert to write an article recently published in Super Lawyers Magazine.  This article, Do I Have to Consent to a Police Search of My Car, addresses many questions that could arise in the course of routine traffic stop.  Yet, a search of a vehicle is normally a complex, fact-specific legal issue.  To this end, we would encourage anyone who has been arrested as the result of a traffic stop to seek the advice of an experienced criminal defense attorney.  We would also encourage everyone to be polite whenever interacting with any member of law enforcement.
