Are there any laws regarding trees over a neighbors property being cut down?

Although the law on this is not absolute, California law gives property owners pretty broad discretion to trim back overhanging branches to the property line.  The neighbor must exercise "due care" when trimming to avoid permanently damaging or killing the tree.  I would consult a certified arborist to provide you with a trimming plan that would satisfy your neighbor and not damage the tree to the point that it might fall over.

Land used for a certain amount of time to provide access to another's property becomes tantamount to their property.  It is known as adverse possession. Actually, in this case it would become public domain and thereafter you don't have the right to close it back off when you decide you want to do so.  (If they have frontage to a road elsewhere, they need to build their gate there.)\nBe prepared to lose a chunk of your land.  Or you could close it off and offer to sell that piece if they are interested.  If nothing else, a lease of that access and a waiver in case of accidents would protect you and your property rights.  These situations can get VERY sticky, so exercise your property rights or go get a lawyer.  In some states (such as Texas) it's illegal to sell land that does not have access.

There is no statewide law concerning that.  That would be a local ordinance and you would have to check with the city or county that has jurisdiction over that area.

It's easy either way, but I would say handle it all yourself.  That way you can say that it was your idea and your planning instead of someone else's.  \n\nGo to your town council, meet with them and ask permission first of all.  Especially about planting trees.  Get with other people in your community for support and help if you need it.  Go around in local businesses and explain what you are trying to do an ask if they will sponsor you.  If not you can talk with the town council, the county seat, or even the state about helping out with the project.

Unfortunately you can’t and the reason is the answer you have already stated. There is always the idea of appealing to your neighbor’s sense of morality and natural connectedness i.e. begging. On an extreme you can gather together all the other neighbors in the area and rally for the cause. Perhaps this action will stop your neighbors intended actions. \n\nI would just like to add that I am sorry about your situation. I recently drove through the Redwood National Forest near Humboldt and the experience brought me to tears. Those beautiful trees were like ancient guardians towering over everything real. I really do understand.  I wish you all the luck… -Kenny

Someone, somewhere has built "legal" tree houses. Search the Internet and talk to your local city or county building department to find some referrals.

in most states, the branchs that are on your property are yours..\nhence you usually have the right to cut.but you need to double check this..\nif he does not want you to cut because it could cause the tree to die , get a local tree wound healer to put over the fresh cuts...\ntake photos. send the neighbor  a letter of your intent...\nalso contact your insurance company, so they can sue your neighbor damages for neglect....because he can be sued for neglect and endangerment of your property.ask for his insurance companies name.\nif they have a home loan ,which you can find out at records, contact the lender and tell them the situation...because they do not want a possiblity of being liable....or just contact a lawyer and have them send your neighbor a letter , complaining about his neglect and endangerment of your well being and property...

I don't know where you live, but where I live it's not illegal.  Gak.  If you want to start up a real feud, you could bag up all the leaves and dump them back into his yard.  \n\nOr build a fence.  Be very clear about your property line, however; you wouldn't want him to own the fence!\n\nKeep a record of what he does and when he does it.  You might have a basis for an harrassment suit.

In a barn or other form of out-building on someones land; preferably with their permission.\nYou can trash it (clean up is easy), make more noise, and less problems with police if your out of town in the county somewhere.

You should probably start by discussing the issue with your neighbor. If that doesn't work, you can find the particulars for your community on www.findlaw.com.

You could ask the current owners of the land if you could remove the tree, and offer to provide a replacement.\n\nIf they will not agree, you might want to take your story to the local press - local newspapers, television, or radio, and see if you can get some publicity to turn public opinion to bear in your favor. \n\nNote: removal might damage and possibly kill the tree, which would be the last thing you'd want to be responsible for.  It's been doing so well where it is, possibly you could be satisfied with a cutting or branch that you could propagate into a new tree, or keep as a memento?

The laws vary from state to state regarding you rights when someone trespasses on your land and damages your property.  You mentioned "Timber Trespass" laws.  This law may be unique to your state and you can't really ask people to interpret laws they haven't even read.  Your rights in this situation depend on what laws in your state say, so you should consult an attorney in your area.

In general your property belongs to you and you can exclude your neighbors.\nHowever, there are a few exceptions:\n\nYour neighbors can claim "Easement by prescription"[1] if she was using the driveway for long enough. \n\nAlso if your neighbors have no other way to get out to main road they may claim "Easement by necessity". [2]\n\n\n\nIf you want to know specific laws for Property in Arkansas you can consult the state code[3] (look for chapter 18. Property)\n\nBut in general a thing like this will be governed by common law. So I would recommend a lawyer to take a look at the specific fact of your case.

Law is on there side if they are using "right-of-way".  It doesn't matter how wide the road was or will be...the county has right-a-way at least 10 feet on either side of the road (more or less depending on the jurisdiction). \n\nTo answer your question about payment, however, if there is not anything in the statutes already to provide for payment, they do not have to pay you.  All they have to argue is that the trees are within the right of way and claim public safety as the justifiable cause to remove the trees...sorry, but I have been down this road myself and you are in a no-win deal if the county has already made up it's mind to start cutting....the best you can do is see if they will allow and assist in moving the trees further back on to the property.  You have a better chance of that then stopping the cutting.  And it is the same soil so the trees should survive better.

This claims adjuster agrees with your insurance company if the cuase of the loss was, in fact, an act of God.  However, if the tree were rotten or there were some other condition caused by your neighbors own negligence then the neighbor could be liable.\n\nThe critical question is this, "Who caused the loss?" If the answer is God then you will have to bear the expense of the loss.
