Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
Neighbor in the apartment above mine dropped something so heavy several time that my walls cracked. They admitted fault but then refused to compensate me for repairs. I would like to take them to small claims court but the only witnesses are members of my family. Is this all lost? Thanks!!

Go for it. Bring your relatives with you. If you have photos of before and after, bring those with you, as well. Bring whatever documents you have in which they admitted fault. Also, bring with you an estimate for your repairs and, as a bonus, ask the repair person to come to court. Perhaps that person can opine as to the cause of the cracks, as well. Good luck!
I agree with Mr. Cohen, as long as you own your apartment. If you rent, you should report this to the owner or manager and let her take care of it.
