Legal Question in Intellectual Property in Florida

county codes

I live in Putnam County. I live on a dead end street. The last few years mobile homes have moved in with septic tanks are now have to be above ground. They have hauled dirt in and have made their places higher up and the flow of the water has changed where I now flood out everytime we get a heavy rain. They have not put a ditch between the properties. The county redid a culvert on our property line to drain into the river. But when the river is up it just backs up into our yard and floods our family room downstairs. We have lost our big oak tree because our yard now stays soaked. We lived here since 1995 and never had the problem that we have now since the mobiles were put in. We get nowhere with the county.We are on social security and disability and our income is low anddon't know what or where else to turn.

Re: county codes

You have a claim against the neighbor for altering the flow of water so that it damaged your property. Contact a local attorney right away.
