With a warrant and court order. You wouldn't know about it unless you were arrested for something arising out of the surveillance. If so, then you would have an evidence suppression issue to raise in court. If that occurs, and if you are serious about hiring counsel to help in this, and if this is in SoCal courts, feel free to contact me.
