How loud is too loud, legally?

Howard Gould (Neighbor Law Expert, Finestone & Richter) gives expert video advice on: How do I know whether my neighbor's noise is breaking the law?; Is there anything I can do about a barking dog?; What can I do to stop my neighbor's noise? and more...

It depends on where you live as to how loud you can go. Some places will have a specific noise level, a decibel level that is recognized as the maximum that you can reach. Other places may be just a standard of reasonableness. So you're going to have to look at the law in the community where you live. Again, you're going to want to enlist other people if you can as witnesses, because that's going to be the best evidence. If you have more than one person who says this was really louder than we should have to suffer, you're more likely to succeed,
