The search you have attempted is malformed - take a look at the section on searching for specific properties here:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Search#Finding_nodes_by_text_property_values
You need to know the namespace prefix of your property from your custom model, assuming the namespace prefix was "custom" then the search string would look like this:


@custom\:Client:SampleClient

Note that you need to escape the '\' character as it's also an escape character in FreeMarker So your final search string would look something like this:


@custom\\:Client:SampleClient
‍‍‍

Hope this helps,

Kevin
