What is Gazumping and is it Legal?

I deal with inheritance claims and I am not familiar with the term "Certificate of Ownership" nor would I imagine that to make a claim would cost so much money.

My friend told me that she needs a certificate of ownership and the solicitor told her it would cost $8000 USD. Is this right?

A landowner has the right to cut branches which overhang his property, although he does not own what is cut off, so it would be best for B to ask A whether he wants it returned. He probably won't and B will be entitled to dispose of it.

B owes no duty to C to preserve his shade.

However, it may be that the tree in question is protected by a tree preservation order, in which case it may be a criminal offence to cut the branches without the local authority's permission and B should check with the local authority before carrying out the work.
