Under the title "These rules really apply", the portal "test.de" has summarized interesting facts about neighbourhood law. Various topics are highlighted, such as "greenery", "barbecues" and "optics". Reference is also made to various judgments that have been handed down by courts in this context.
However, before a court has to deal with neighbor disputes, the neighbors should first have a personal discussion. If this is unsuccessful, the portal refers to other options. Neighbor disputes can be resolved by an arbitration office or mediation. Both are cheaper than legal fees and court costs.
Under the motto "Good advice on neighborhood law", Stiftung Warentest also publishes a guide alongside its tips on the Internet. Among other things, it highlights common problem cases and describes solutions to avoid disputes with neighbors. The 176-page guide is available for 19.90 euros at test.de/shop/steuern-recht/gut-beraten-im-nachbarschaftsrecht-sp0614/.
