If a trailer were to flip and I were to go to retrieve my personal valuables and halted by officers could I use the law as my defense to procure my items?

It will likely be difficult to find a lawyer to take this case on a contingency basis. Take it to the store and show them the burnt phone. Perhaps they will supply you a new phone, and maybe even fix your table. You can search Google to see if others have reported similar problems.
