Best Answer

Your own Home insurance would cover the damages to your home

In the United States at least, no one is held liable for acts of nature. It does not matter if a tree fell on your property whether from your yard, your neighbors yard, blown in from some national forest down the street or some other yard due to a natural occurrence.

Can you sue your if someone's tree falls on your house in Ohio?

Probably not. If the tree falls on your house due to a storm then the neighbor is not liable for the damage and it will have to be filed on your insurance. The only case where a neighbor may be liable is if the tree was dead and the person knew it was dead and was a risk to your property. Why would you want to sue your neighbor anyway?


If a neighbor's tree falls on my house who is responsible?

If the tree was not dead already and clearly so then your insurance would pay for the damage to your house. A storm that causes the tree to fall is considered an "act of God" and the neighbor is therefore not responsible for the incident.


If a neighbor's tree falls on my car?

This is the same situation as in the house question. If a storm causes a tree to fall and it hits your car then your car insurance will be the only avenue to pay for damages to your vehicle. The only way the neighbor could be at fault is if the tree was dead and if the neighbors knew it was dead and did nothing about removing the tree. You would have needed to send them a letter informing them of the tree as well and asking them to remove it to secure the liability on their part.


Who is liable when a neighbors tree falls?

It depends on what made the tree fall. If the tree is dead, then the owner of the tree is liable. If a tornado caused it to blow over it is considered a natural act and no one is liable.


Will insurance cover a dead tree 20ft from house to be removed before if falls on roof?

It is the responsibility of the Homeowner to maintain their property including the removal of old dead trees. Should the tree fall on your house and the company finds out that you knew about the hazard and took no action, they can legally refuse the claim based on the homeowners negligence in failing to mitigate a known hazard. Realistically, If you notified the company as you are required to do at policy inception or at renewal that you have an old tree about to fall on your house they most likely would not have sold you the policy or renewed the policy until you have mitigated the risk of the tree.
