Federal agents execute a search warrant at your medical practice, seizing patient records and prescription logs.
Can they take patient records without patient consent?
A valid federal search warrant overrides HIPAA privacy protections. However, the warrant must be properly scoped. An attorney can challenge overly broad warrants and move to suppress improperly seized evidence.

Grounds for Deportation: Even Minor Offenses Can Trigger Removal Proceedings
In an ideal world, only the most serious criminal convictions would place someone’s immigration status in jeopardy. But the reality is, even relatively minor offenses can be grounds for deportation under current U.S. laws and policies.Some of the most common grounds for removal that our NYC deportation lawyers frequently encounter include:
- Drug crimes (including simple possession of marijuana or other controlled substances)
- Crimes of moral turpitude (such as theft, fraud, or intentional infliction of harm)
- Domestic violence and other crimes involving violence or abuse
- DUI/DWI and other alcohol-related driving offenses
- Firearm violations and other weapons charges
- White collar crimes like embezzlement or money laundering
- Certain immigration violations (illegal entry, overstaying a visa, etc.)
- Providing false information on immigration documents
- Violating terms of probation or supervised release
- Multiple criminal convictions showing a pattern of criminal behavior
