Attorney Jordan addresses the problems of noise, the many and various conflicts over trees, boundary lines, trespass and easements, fences, dangers to children, right-to-farm laws, water strife, neighbors running businesses, and solving all these problems through a little law research, contacting the offending neighbor in person or by mail, using a mediator, and going as far as small claims court. Appendices are devoted to state statutes on trees and "private nuisance," and other statutes on boundary fences, "adverse possession," and the right-to-farm. One cameo case involved a California lawyer suing his lawyer/neighbor for two million dollars the latter disturbed him by repeatedly dribbling a ball in his driveway. Annotation c.
