About Criminal Trespass Charges Defense in Phoenix

In Arizona, trespassing involves a situation where someone intentionally enters and spends time on a property without the owner’s permission. This can be applied to no-trespassing areas too. This can turn into criminal trespass when the person enters a residential property in a reckless way, disturbing the privacy of those inside. These charges can be in the first, second or third degree. Our criminal trespass charges defense team at Shah Law PLLC understands all trespassing laws in Arizona and can represent you in your time of need.

Penalties for Criminal Trespassing in Arizona

In Phoenix, criminal trespassing can lead to jail time, fines, and other court requirements. A first-degree criminal trespass charge is a Class 6 felony punishable with up to a year in jail and a $2,500 fine. A second-degree criminal trespass charge is a Class 2 misdemeanor with up to four months in jail and a $750 fine.
