Fallen Tree Responsibilities

What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Georgia. Forsyth County.

During the past storm we had three trees blown down. One fell into my yard, two into the neighbor's yard. Nothing was damaged, but who is responsible for removing the two trees that fell into the neighbor's yard?

The neighbor is responsible for all parts of the tree up to the property line. Then you are responsible for the parts on your property.

Think "Act of God".

Is the answer the same for Alabama, Calhoun County?

Depends on if God acts in Alabama.

Fallen Trees

I promise you God is ALIVE and in Alabama. He obviously does act here. We have approximately 50 trees in our yard. It was rotten, unknown to us and it did no damage other than to our fence

then, in this case, act of God won't apply. Although the condition of the tree was unknown to you, it is still your responsibility and as such, you are also responsible for any damage it causes, including clearing it when it 'falls'.

Contact your insurance company.

Thanks BelizeBreeze, it is so good to have some humor when there is so much sadness and dispair now.

That's why I have a chainsaw. I smile all the time when it's in my hands

Hi Breezy,

I'm back about my tree across the fence. We informed the neighbor that due to my husbands back surgery 2 months ago we could not help her with the tree. This morning her son or someone came and cut it up and tossed it back over our fence. What can we do?

Then have a bon-fire and invite your neighbors over.

You could even sell the wood. Then the neighbors would be bummed they missed out on the money.
