English isn't my first language so bear with me. Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.

neighbor's tree damaging my property. I've been dealing with this for about 2 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been renting for 4 years. My monthly rent is $4,135. I have a written lease.

Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?

I keep hearing about cases like this.

What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.

Just want to point out — teh statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.
