Shiel filed a complaint of private annoyance and home invasion against the Rowells after the tree caused algae to build up on the roof of Shiel's house and the Rowells refused to cut it down. The case was filed on appeal, and Shiel urged the SJC to adopt the “Hawaii Rule,” which allows the neighbor to require the tree owner to pay for damage and cut branches and roots if the tree causes, or there is an imminent danger of causing, damage to the neighbor's property.

If your trees have been unfairly removed by a neighbor or if you have removed them by mistake, you should consult an experienced Massachusetts real estate lawyer.
The law gives a utility company the right to remove or prune its tree if this interferes with the necessary and reasonable operation of the utility company. The National Electrical Safety Code requires that public services prune or remove trees that grow near power lines that threaten to disrupt the The analysis of the cost of restoration takes into account the aesthetics, functionality, age, height, circumference and species of trees, and formulates a value of restoration for the replacement of removed trees.
