Oct 7, 2022

October 07, 2022 - /PressAdvantage/ - Long Island trespass attorney Edward Palermo (https://edpalermo.com/long-island-trespass-attorney/) releases a new article explaining the different levels of trespass offenses in New York. The lawyer mentions that oftentimes, people tend to take the offense of trespassing lightly. However, trespassing is considered a violation in New York, and other levels of trespassing are considered crimes that can result in serious penalties and even jail time.

“Trespass offenses are considered property crimes. New York’s trespass laws have multiple degrees of charges, with varying degrees of severity and penalties. A simple trespass, or entering and remaining on someone’s property without permission, while not a criminal offense, is considered a violation and can result in fines, community service, or even a 15-day jail sentence. Furthermore, the trespasser may be held liable for any damages they have caused to the property,” the Long Island trespass attorney says.

The lawyer explains that criminal trespass laws are serious and can the charges can range from a misdemeanor to a felony. The charges usually vary depending on the type of building entered and whether the individual has a criminal history and was carrying a weapon at the time of the trespass.

Attorney Edward Palermo adds that criminal trespass in the third degree is considered a class B misdemeanor with a maximum sentence of 90 days in jail. Criminal trespass in the second degree is considered a class A misdemeanor and can be sentenced to up to one year in jail.

In the article, attorney Palermo says, “Being convicted of criminal trespass can result in time behind bars, extensive fines, and a criminal record that will follow you for life. When you have been charged with criminal trespass on Long Island, there may be some legal defenses available to you.”

Lastly, attorney Palermo emphasizes the importance of having a skilled criminal defense lawyer when facing trespassing charges on Long Island. Having an experienced lawyer may be able to help the defendant protect their rights and their freedom.
