Whose responsibility is it when a tree falls on your property?

Nobody is liable for an act of nature. It does not matter who owned the tree. If a tree falls on your house just call your insurance company. If it just fell in your yard and did not damage your property you just have to get it removed yourself. If it's partially on your property and partially on the property of another, then each property owner is responsible for removing that part on their own property.

Who is resposible when tree falls and pulls down neighbors electrical wiring and damages house?

The neighbor is responsible for his own property. If your tree fell on his house, he is responsible for the damage. That is how homeowners insurance works. * No one is "legally" responsible if it was a result of a natural occurrance. The neighbor whose tree fell and damaged the other person's property cannot be held accountable for a situation that was not in his or her control. If the tree fell as a result of a storm, the person whose property was damaged should claim it on their homeowner's insurance is possible. If it fell and damaged property due to it being trimmed or removed, the liability lies with the person who was taking the action. It would be a nice gesture if the neighbor who owned the tree agreed to share the damage cost, but in the majority of cases he or she cannot be held legally liable.

95 percent of the trunk of a tree is in your next door neighbor property line. If the tree falls and cause damages who is responsible?

Generally, you will be responsible for any damage to your property caused by this tree. Your neighbor would only be responsible for property damages if he knew that the tree was in imminent danger of falling and took no action. If the tree is hazardous, it is a good idea to work with your neighbor to have it removed. If the neighbor does not cooperate, you can write him a certified letter warning of the danger of the tree, which will make him responsible for property damage should the tree fall. If it is necessary to write a letter, you should see a real estate attorney in your area to make sure that the wording of the letter will make your neighbor responsible for the tree under your state's laws.


Who is responsiable when a tree falls on neighbors car?

Mother Nature would be the "responsible" party. The homeowner is not "liable" for acts of nature. Your homeowners insurance is not responsible for a natural act that causes damage to property of another. Your neighbors car is not listed as covered property on your Homeowners policy. Your homeowners insurance would also not pay if the tree fell on your own automobile. If a tree falls on someones car they should file a loss claim with their Auto Insurance Company. If they have comprehensive coverage then it will take care of their loss.
