Need help to have tree removed

[Ralph Christian Mark Aquino]

Hello BP community. I am looking for a real estate attorney to help me remove a destructive tree in front of my house, which unfortunately is on city property. City of Whittier California loooves their trees and giving me a hard time. I attempted to send them a letter written by my grandma’s Doctor how much of a hazard that tree is, no success. Just recently a 10 ft branch out of nowhere fell and smashed my neighbors car. We’re just glad it wasn’t a person that huge branch landed on. The roots are already lifting up the pavement and causing potential hazard, it is just a matter of time until it finds it way to the sewer line. Any advice or help would be great.
