What is the name of your state? Louisiana
My grandma's neighbor has a tree in her yard that is dying from the ground up. Some of the limbs hang over Granny's house. 2 years ago she paid to have some removed (so-called insurance requirement) but as it's a very large tree, more limbs are falling & causing roof leaks. I've already talked to city workers who confirmed that it's the neighbor's responsibility, but as far as making them cut it down or reimburse her for the cost, she would need to get a lawyer. How can I go about asking them to cut or pay without involving the lawyers? Could I speak to her insurance company? This tree poses a danger of falling onto Granny's house & Granny herself. Yes, it would alleviate the threat if Granny had it cut down but she's an elderly woman with limited funds.
