Legal Answers
1 Questions Answered
Q. If your neighbor logs on your land, do you sue the land owner or the logger, and which law backs that up?
A: Generally, both the land owner and the logger can be held liable under the described circumstances. The issue, however is complex in your case because there is a dispute with your neighbor regarding who is claiming ownership of the property where the trees are located. But, to answer your question, both the person hiring the logger and the logger can be held liable for cutting the trees down on a property not owned by the person hiring the logger.
