Trespassing and interference issues often begin as neighbor disagreements, family land disputes, or repeated unwanted conduct. Over time, these problems can affect daily life, property use, safety, and the value of your land.

​

These matters may involve:

​

  • Someone entering your property without permission

  • Damage to fences, gates, driveways, fields, or land

  • Blocking a driveway, road, or access point

  • Cutting trees or removing property

  • Disputes over shared roads or rural boundaries

  • Interference with quiet enjoyment of your property

  • Neighbor conduct affecting your ability to use your land

 

Even when the issue seems informal, it is important to understand your legal options before the dispute escalates.

Legal Guidance
for Trespassing Claims

Trespassing is not always limited to someone walking across land. It may involve repeated entry, unauthorized use of roads or paths, vehicles crossing private property, hunting access disputes, or activity that damages or interferes with land.

​

Dunning Law, LLC can review the facts, property records, communications, photos, and other evidence to help determine the best path forward.

Depending on the situation, legal options may include:

​

  • Demand letters

  • Negotiated resolution

  • Civil claims

  • Injunctive relief

  • Property damage claims

  • Court action to stop continued interference

 

The right approach depends on the property, the conduct, the documents, and the history between the parties.

Property Interference and Neighbor Disputes

Many property disputes are not just about ownership. They are about someone interfering with your ability to use your land, access your home, maintain your property, or enjoy your space without ongoing conflict.

​

Property interference may involve:

​

  • Vehicles parked on or across private property

  • Gates, chains, or barriers blocking access

  • Dumping, debris, or damage

  • Repeated encroachment

  • Harassment tied to land use

  • Interference with farm, residential, or rural property use

 

Our firm helps clients sort through the legal issues and pursue practical solutions designed to reduce conflict and protect property rights.

Why These Issues
Should Be Addressed Early

Property disputes often get worse when they are ignored. What starts as occasional trespassing or interference can become a pattern, especially when boundaries, access rights, or prior permission are unclear.
