The foundation for an objection can be complex, but some fundamental rationales may be:
Hearsay grounds - The testimony or evidence is an out of court statement that is presented in evidence for the truth of the matter asserted.
Relevancy grounds - Such as the answer is not relevant to the question asked, or the evidence presented has no bearing on the case.
Prejudicial grounds - The evidence should be excluded because its probative value is outweighed by its prejudice.

Because there are so many "rules" of law one couldn't possibly list ALL the reasons for an "objection" by an attorney in a court of law.
Many objections levied by attorney's include heresay, improper presentation, inadmissability of certain criteria or information, and the list goes on.
Because MOST courts are open to the public...you should attend a trial firsthand.
As a police officer, I do this often so that when conducting investigations, in the future, I will take steps to avoid problems next time one of my OWN cases goes to court!
Best wishes!

You can hire a lawyer if you want but what exactly is he going to do for you? But contact one and talk it over
