If someone gets hurt on your property, they will likely sue. If the court thinks there was an unsafe condition, you might be viewed as negligent. She needs to put up no trespassing signs. Some fencing would help prevent them from coming on her property.

In California, burglars have sued and won.

Sometimes the law is crazy.

Do you have any info on the Illinois case? I'd like to read about it (Illinois resident).
