On June 14, 2025 I was injured by a falling oak tree limb. The landlord was told multiple times about the dead limbs in the tree. I was mowing my grass and a giant limb fell and knocked me unconscious. I also resulted in 6 staples and two stitches in my head. I had multiple scratches, bruises and a deep laceration to my head and hand. I had a concussion that I am still recovering from and now suffer from headaches, neck pain and extreme bouts of vertigo that limit my ability to function normally on a day-to-day basis. I also have extreme anxiety and PTSD from the incident. My landlord was made aware of what happened. I was informed they would have someone come out and take care of the tree. As of June 15, 2025 there has not been anyone at my home to take care of the remaining dead limbs. I also would like to say that I have the entire incident of what happened to me on security camera footage. My landlords have not informed me of their homeowners insurance.
Yes you might have a case depending on additional facts. Can you prove that you told them about the dangers of the tree before the accident? If so was it just a verbal notice or written notice? If verbal, were any witnesses present when you gave it?
