Additional InformationKeep in mind though that the mere existence of a hazardous condition does not in and of itself constitute negligence. You will need evidence that the negligence was with willful knowledge that you or someone else could be injured.Also please note that since the advent of Tort Reoform, if you lose your lawsuit in that you can not prove your neighbor knowingly and willfully created a hazardous condition, you will be liable for all your neighbors legal expenses, attorney fees, court costs, discovery and investigative expenses, all lost wages or other lost commerce and opportunities as well as any mental anguish or stress that your neighbor incurs due to a failed suit you brought against them. You will also be subject to punitive damages your neighbor can win against you.
More InformationAdded: The second contribution states "you will" be liable for the costs that are enumerated. A more correct statement would be that you could be liable for these expenses IF the defendant/respondant specifically asks for them to be awarded, and the court agrees. Usually this occurs only when there is significant cause for the court to believe that the basis of the suit was false and/or it was filed with malicious intent.
