What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida
One of my neighbors trees, the roots and branches, impedes onto
my property. The roots protrude from the ground and cause me to
trip over them. There is little space to walk around them. Also, several
large branches hang over into my property and drop lots of leaves onto
my lawn.
1) Can I legally cut the roots that impede onto my property and
can I cut the branches that hang over onto my property as well?
2) If I cut the roots off and the tree dies, can she sue me?
3) Can she sue me if I cut the branches off?
4) What are my rights regarding the roots and branches on my property?
I don't want a legal matter on my hands nor do I want to sue her or get sued.
I am a 76 year old woman who lives alone and do the yardwork myself.
