If you're experiencing a problem with an individual, Massachusetts law allows you to lawfully prohibit that person from entering your property or place of business. Under M.G.L. c. 266 § 120, a person may be arrested for trespass only if he or she has been clearly notified—either by posted signage or by direct written notice—that entry onto your property is forbidden.
Our paralegals can prepare a notarized Notice of Trespass (NTP) and arrange for service by a certified process server or constable. Once the notice is served in-hand to the individual, you will receive the original document along with a formal proof of service. If the individual returns to your property after being served, you may contact the police to request enforcement and potential arrest.
