Trespass occurs when a person enters onto someone else's land, home, car or other property without the owner's permission. It is generally charged as a misdemeanor, not a felony, which means that the penalty upon conviction is not as serious as a felony.

It is still important that you seek the counsel of an experienced, aggressive lawyer who understands trespassing laws and the strategies to defend you against these criminal charges. A conviction can result in high fines, potential jail time and a criminal record. Even if you are from out of town visiting, we can provide you with a strong defense.

One way a person can end up with a trespass charge is if he or she enters a bar or club even after being refused entry by a bouncer or security guard. You should not dismiss the severity of these charges, because what you may think is not serious, may in fact lead to serious problems.
