Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Maryland

Re: Tree Trimming

If the trees are posing a potential danger to his property such as by a falling limb, or if leaves are dropping on his property, he can take reasonable action to protect and maintain his property. If he does a radical trimming which injures the tree and doesn't address one of the above issues, you may have a damages claim. The better course of action would be communication between you and an understanding as to how to address the problem, rather than unilateral action.
