This will surely make the trees lose their life in the near future. It would be better for you to make the authorities aware of this situation or a reliable tree removal service provider and let them take the necessary steps. However, it would be better if the scene can be seen and then proper solutions be given to you.
Tree clearing dispute
in Trees and the Law
Posted · Edited by Amelanchier
Removed link
Since the tree was growing in your property, it is naturally your responsibility to get the fallen tree cleared by hiring a tree removal specialist. However, when it comes to paying for the damages caused by the fallen tree to your neighbour's property, it all depends on a few questions and factors:
1) Whether your neighbour had requested or warned you of the position of the tree facing or lying heavily upon their land
2) Whether the tree was about to die or was rotting
If the damage is not disputed by your neighbour, then it is up to you whether you want to pay for it or not. However, for humanity's sake I would suggest that you pay a part of the damages caused to their property by your fallen tree.
