neighbor issues are difficult because one of the worst things to have is a neighbor problem. you don't want to sue your neighbor or get into an adversarial relationship - you will never have peace. while it is true that a joint fence or effort requires joint participation, there are responsible people and those who are not. my sincere advice is that ask nicely and if he doesnt want to participate in the repair then you do it and eat the cost. undoubtedly you could find a lawyer that will charge you thousands to litigate and you will end up poorer and unhappy. good luck.
