If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

Let me understand this correctly. Your son was in your neighbor's driveway and hit the hitch on your neighbor's truck which was presumably lawfully parked.

Under what basis can you show any negligence on the part of your neighbor? If there is no negligence on the part of your neighbor, then I do not see any viable claim for damages. Chances are the injury was not major either or you would have said so.

I would suggest you not puruse this line of thought. I doubt any attorney would be interested in a case such as this.

No. None at all.
