It depends on what made the tree fall. If the tree is dead, then the owner of the tree is liable. If a tornado caused it to blow over it is considered a natural act and no one is liable.

Depending on where you live the laws can vary. If the neighbors horses are on your property you can call animal control to report them and the officials will help you determine what is the best course of action. If this is a common occurrence and the cause is owner negligence the horse will likely be taken away or the owner may be fined and made to improve their fences.


What if your Fence is destroyed by a neighbors tree?

From personal experience, you turn it into your home owner's insurance, pay your deductable, and have repairs made. Unless the tree was condemed or the city served him notice to have it removed, you have no recourse to pursue it against your neighbor.


If trees are taken down by a tornado and fall on the neighbors property who is legally responsible for the cleanup cost?

Unless the trees were known to be weak and dangerous prior to the tornado, the damage is an "act of god" and the owner where they landed is responsible for cleanup. If the trees were previously known to be "ready to crumble", then there could be an argument that the tree's owner would owe some duty to remove them or clean them up when they fall, regardless of the intervening storm. Your local laws may vary, so if you can't work it out with the neighbors on your own, seek legal counsel for a specific set of facts in a specific jurisdiction.

Will your own home owner's insurance cover your damages if your Texas neighbor's pit bull bit you but neighbor's home owner's excludes dog and neighbor has no assets?

No, Your Home Owners Insurance policy will not invoke. Your neighbors Home Insurance policy will also not cover if the animal exclusion exists on the policy. there will be no coverage forthcoming from your neighbors Home Owners Insurance policy. It has become common practice to exclude damage and injury resulting from ownership of vicious animals from Home Owners Insurance Policies around the country. Your Own Medical Insurance Policy however will invoke and afford coverage for your medical expenses. Other expenses such as loss of income may also be covered by your medical insurance depending on the coverages afforded by that policy.

Why must i pay my neighbor for a water well that is located on the property i purchased?

Possibly the neighbor payed for some of the well on your property, and you must pay him back the money you owe him for the well. Also, he may have installed the well, and made and paid for it and made a deal with the last owner of the house for the owner to pay it all back to the neighbor. If there isn't anything owed to the neighbor, then you don't have to pay your neighbor for a water well that is on your property that you legally purchased.


Which side should a close-board fence be positioned Best side in neighbors or owners What if they are paying half as they want the fence changed but the existing one is still ok?

The law requires that the best side (the side without all the wooden posts showing) be towards the neighbor. it makes no difference if they are paying half, because the law requires that the owner of the fence follow the law. in other words, the fence is on your land, and therefore, the best side must be towards the neighbor. The law protects not only the neighbor, but future buyers of your neighbor's property.
