This is your biggest concern right now.  If the tree isn't going to cause any damage if it falls, then NBD that it's dead.  But if it does fall onto your property or your neighbor's and causes damage, then you're going to incur more costs than just tree removal.  Estimates are usually free, so you can probably have someone come look at the tree.  And, while it's true that if you do more than one tree at a time you get a discount, not everyone gives you an equally good discount if it's a neighbor's tree and they are dealing with two different property owners.

This is not true. The neighbor's insurance would take care of the neighbor's damage. Look into your insurance. It does not matter where the tree originates. The person with the damage uses their insurance to deal with the damage. [/quote]

Yes, UNLESS the owner of the tree has notice that the tree is a hazard and didn't do anything about it.  Then it's the owner's responsibility (and I suspect that the owner's insurance would refuse to pay).[/quote]
