Today, the tree that my neighbors have neglected to cut down fell on my car. They claim that by law, they aren't responsible and don't have to pay for it. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my neighbors threatened to sue me because a six-foot branch fell off one of my trees and into their yard, hitting nothing on the way down. FML
Today, a tree fell on our 3-month-old family car. Today, I also learned that my husband never insured it. It's probably scrap, and we still have to pay it off for the next 5 years. FML
Today, I watched one of my neighbor's trees fall into the electrical lines outside my house. This was after he took a chainsaw to the tree. He refuses to cover the damages. FML
Today, I decided to clear up some storm damage. I carefully cut a tree that was threatening to fall on my house. It fell on my neighbor's house instead. He's taking me to court for damages. FML
Today, the elderly couple next door asked me to cut down a tree in their yard. It turns out they told me to cut down the wrong tree, and I cut down the tree they got married under. They now hate me and tell me they plan to sue me for damage to property. FML
Today, I totaled my car, because I mistook the leaves blowing across the road for a child. I swerved and hit a tree. The home owner wants to sue for "harming his tree" and hospital wants to test my mental stability. FML

they are responsible for negligence. Although it will mostly be covered by insurance on their part, you now have a blank check to discreetly get revenge... Emphasis on discreetly

Shouldn't have put your car under that tree if you knew it was dangerous... Should have cut down that tree yourself if it bothered you... My point is - stop bitching, I bet you insurance covers it

Take an axe to their door, perhaps?

If the tree was on their property, & fell onto yours, you can file suit. In the future, if a tree or a branch from one of their trees is hanging over your property, cut it down. Legally, you can

False. If you can prove their negligence they owe you.
