Neighbours Causing Damp Problem

Ok it is worse than damp, its soaking. We have just purchased a house with a garage. I am kicking myself that i did not notice this myself. The garage is a prefab concrete garage in the rear garden with an asbestos roof which is fine for my needs. Problem is the neighbourghs land is approximately 300-400mm higher, and after heavy rain (like we had recently) water comes up through the floor where the next door properys land abutts the garage, the water is literally an inch deep after heavy rain.
I dont know what to do, suck it up or is someone to blame? How do i fix it or do i cut my losses and demolish the garage all together :eek:
