Okay, you work for a company who was raided and you're worried about WHAT was imaged? They have a copy of your drive, no doubt about it. Was it local law enforcement? What were the charges or what was the reason for the warrant? You do not ever need to call this "the police stole my computer" because to me it sounds like a) it is not YOUR computer but it is company property b) they did not steal it, they gave it back but seized it and likely had a warrant and c) you say you have "legal" files which are "legal privilege" so are you saying that they seized a computer with data on it that was privileged and confidential under attorney/client privilege?
This sounds bogus. I think you have 100% of the story but you just dished out about 5%, haphazardly at that.

There is no way he can really be seriously sure. Yes, police can seize your property with a warrant which assumes cause.
