About this book

Resolve neighbor conflicts and get peace of mind

Don't let a neighborly nuisance turn into a nasty lawsuit. Learn your rights and responsibilities with Neighbor Law, the plain-English guide to the laws behind common neighbor disputes.

Neighbor Law is more than a legal guide—it's a practical book filled with tips on how to solve problems and restore good neighbor relations. Find out how to handle:

  • noisy neighbors
  • trees that hang over a property line
  • blocked views
  • unclear boundary lines
  • high, unsightly, or deteriorating fences
  • dangers to children ("attractive nuisances")
  • problems with neighboring businesses
  • drones trespassing onto your property
  • other common issues, like secondhand smoke, blighted property, and animal issues.

This edition includes updated laws and information on going to court, boundary fences, private nuisances, and much more.
