TRESPASSING CHARGES FOR MINORS MIAMI, FL
JUVENILE TRESPASSING ATTORNEY IN MIAMI-DADE COUNTY
Trespassing is one of the most common charges prosecuted against minors. According to the Florida Statutes Trespassing § 810.09, a person commits trespassing when they enter or remain on any property without being authorized, licensed, or invited. Additionally, prosecutors must prove that there was notice against trespassing, either through the use of communication, such as a sign, or through the use of fences or other boundaries. Typically, trespassing is a first-degree misdemeanor, although heightened charges and felony allegations can be prosecuted when aggravating circumstances are involved, including trespassing with the intent to commit another offense, such as vandalism or burglary, or when an individual trespasses on certain properties, including construction sites and agricultural sites.
If your child has been charged with trespassing, taking swift action is of the utmost importance. At Hager & Schwartz, P.A., our Miami juvenile trespassing attorneys are able to use our extensive resources to conduct thorough investigations that secure the supporting evidence needed to disprove the prosecution's case. In addition, we use our experience as former prosecutors to anticipate the tactics that will be used against your son or daughter when pushing for a conviction. As juveniles face serious consequences when convicted of trespassing, including possible terms of detention and probation, we leave no stone unturned when preparing our defense and fighting aggressively on your child's behalf.
Depending on the nature of the trespassing allegation, your child may face penalties that pose significant barriers to their future social mobility.
