I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

neighbor's tree damaging my property. I've been dealing with this for about 4 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been renting for 2 years. My monthly rent is $2,521. We are on a month-to-month now.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?

Statute of limitations warning: I almost missed the deadline to file my claim. In most states, the clock starts ticking from when the violation occurred OR when you discovered it (the discovery rule). Don't assume you have unlimited time — check your state's SOL for your specific type of claim sadly.
