Utah Private Nuisance Attorney
Were You Charged With Disturbing the Peace?
It is said that if you ever have a neighbor who hates you, that neighbor will win. Criminal charges of disturbing the peace are somewhat like criminal charges of domestic violence in that one person's complaint directed through the police can be of great consequence to the person complained about — with or without merit or justification. If you have been charged with disturbing the peace in Utah, you need quality legal counsel to understand how to protect your rights and prevent a mark on your criminal record over a neighborhood conflict.
Contact us at the law offices of Greg Smith and Associates, Criminal Law Attorneys, to schedule a free consultation.
It is important to stay on good terms with neighbors, and not just out of decency. A neighborhood or other dispute can turn ugly in a hurry when someone decides to call the police. You may have been charged with disturbing the peace after an incident such as the following:
- A neighbor claimed that you had your radio on too loud or that your lawn mowing too late or too early woke them up
- A neighbor claimed that your late-night party was robbing them of peace and quiet
- Loud noises of any type coming from your property are considered to be a disturbance and public nuisance by someone who is bothered by them
