    Ultimately it's about proving negligence. Is your neighbor willing to put they are negligent in writing? if not you will have a hard time proving

    I understand what you are saying but if the neighbour had not left their dormer window open when severe gale warnings were constantly being issued then the window would not have been pulled off its hinges.

    So isn't this caused by the neighbour rather than the storm i.e., the neighbour has not taken reasonable care?


    If you have a garage, it could be argued that you did not take reasonable care by not putting the car in it when severe gale warnings were constantly being issued.
