Legal Question in Personal Injury in New York
I live Across the street from a golf couse and we have golf ball flyover and hit the houses and cars there is alot of damage that occurs. The biggest problem that we are having is me and the neighbors all have kids and the biggest concern is them getting hit. I contacted the golf course and they told me that they are not responsible for any damage that happens and they refuse to put any netting up. I would understand if I lived on the course but we are accross the street and there answer is that they were there first. That is not the best answer for me I moved into my home in a snow storm and did not find out how bad the problem was untill the spring. If I new the problem was this bad I would have never moved here I feel that I should not have to sell my home due to this when they could help out and fix the problem. Is there anything I could do????

You have to retain an attorney to bring a preliminary injunction against the golf course pending a decision on a permanent injunction regarding inadequate measures to prevent fly balls. Short of it, you could go to town hall and have all your neighbors sign a petition to address the problem in a meeting.
