My neighbor said his contractor damaged my property but won't tell me his name

Just to clarify: have you also sent a copy of the demand letters by snail mail?

If not, do so... preferably by some traceable/trackable means.

No, I sent the demand letter as an attachment to an email. I thought the fact that both parties replied to my email would be sufficient proof that they received the demand letter.

Oh. I agree with not2cleverRed, then.

You will want to send the demand letters with copies of the estimates by certified mail, return receipt requested. Although emails and email exchanges can be used in court, they can raise some authenticity questions that letters sent through the USPS do not.

Good luck.
