Tree Advice For Legal Profession

Professional Advice for Legal Cases

Tree related legal cases are on the increase. Litigating subsidence claims, often involving trees owned by local authorities or other institutions, cases of tree failure causing injury to people or damage to property, and accidents related to tree climbing are the most common areas of our work for the courts.

The effects of climate change and changing weather patterns, particularly storm damage, or drought periods causing subsidence, seem likely to further augment this caseload in the future.
