Am I responsible for my neighbor's tree branches that encroach onto my property?

 Any disputes between neighbors concerning tree branches, shrubs or other landscaping, are civil matters that must be resolved by the neighbors. For the most part, if branches encroach on your property, you have the right to trim them if they pose a problem. Professional legal advice should be obtained prior to any action that may cause an escalation in disputed property. Forks Township cannot resolve these issues.
