What if my neighbor doesn't stop violating the noise laws?

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...

I would certainly call the police if normal types of communication aren't solving the problem. Hopefully the police will get the problem solved. If the police can't get the problem solved then you may well need to go to a civil court, file a lawsuit, get an injunction and also seek damages against the neighbor. You just don't know how far you're going to have to take that to get him to stop the problem. I know of one case where I was involved and I know other lawyers have been involved; this started, it must have been 10 years ago, and I've heard recently that they are still having a problem with this neighbor and the noise that he's causing them.
