This depends on local statutes but normally if most of the root base is in your yard then the tree is financially your responsibility.

Answer 6

Is it your tree?
if you are in a wood burning area, offer to split the removal with the wood going to them, or u could just offer the whole cost to them in exchange for not charging them Shade rental from years of a tree doing its job.
or better yet, when its dark just go out and push the whole tree and trunk onto their property, then saunter back into the house and pactice what my husband preaches "THE NO NEIGHBORS POLICY" by ignoring them, soon they will stop squawking and go away...just have patience!

In any case, offering to remove it would help build good relations with the neighbor.
