Break and Enter Lawyers – Hire One to Protect Your Rights

The break is a serious offence that is considered a criminal act in Toronto. If you face any offence in such a case, Contact Kazandji Law and hire our expert lawyers in order to avoid crimes and protect your rights. 

What is Break and Enter?

If a person breaks into a property and has the intention of committing an offence, they will be considered a criminal, according to the break-and-enter law.

A person who breaks the property after committing the offence is also considered a criminal according to the law of break.

The criminal act can occur in commercial areas, residences, and in different other locations. The break-and-enter crime can also be considered as illegal entry into private properties for the purpose of committing an offence.

If you break inside the property, it will be considered as breaking, but that’s not always the case. Sometimes, when you enter the premises of someone’s property without permission, it will also be considered as breaking.

Even if you are on the premises of someone’s property and the door is unlocked or the window is already broken, it can still count as breaking.

Suppose you visit someone’s property without their concern. In that case, there is no damage occurring, and even if you have no intention of damaging the property or committing the offence, you still get involved in the broken case because you were present there at the moment of the criminal act.

Penalties for Break and Enter in Toronto

When a crime unfolds right in someone’s living space, especially when they’re home, it’s a big deal—so big, in fact, that the culprit could end up starting in jail for life.

 On the flip side, if the misdeed occurs away from homes, the consequences ease up a bit. Still, the offender might have to mark a decade off their calendar of severe offences or get off somewhat lighter for more minor slip-ups.
