Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Hurricane Responsibility
I have several large pine trees on my property, if one of these trees is blown over in a hurricane and causes dameage to a neighbors home, am I liable for the damages? We have had two hurricanes already this year and a third is looking at us, hence my concern.
Thanks for your help!
