Frequently Asked Questions
- So, I’m worried about someone being on my property – what exactly does ‘trespass’ mean in this situation?
Essentially, trespass involves entering or remaining on someone else’s land without permission. It can seem confusing, but we’ll break down the specific laws in Virginia. Mr. Sris can explain the nuances and how they apply to your case. It’s a common concern. - I hear people talk about ‘implied permission’ – what does that really mean when it comes to trespassing?
‘Implied permission’ means that, in some situations, you might be allowed on property without explicitly saying so. For example, a public road crossing a property. However, it’s complex, and we’ll assess your situation to determine if it applies. Counsel at Law Offices of SRIS, P.C. can help. - If someone was just walking across my lawn, could that still be considered trespassing?
Yes, even a brief walk across your property can potentially be considered trespass, particularly if you’ve clearly indicated that it’s private land. The key is whether you gave permission, either explicitly or implicitly. Mr. Sris will investigate all aspects of your case. - I’m a little nervous about proving I didn’t trespass – how do we build a defense?
We’ll gather evidence, like witness statements and property records, to demonstrate that you had a legitimate reason to be on the property. Understanding the facts is crucial. Counsel at Law Offices of SRIS, P.C. will meticulously examine the circumstances surrounding the incident. - What if the person claiming trespass has no documentation of ownership?
