Hi Jim, welcome to Eye on Spain.

Do you mean neighbours' trees or public trees?  What are they affecting?

Justin

the trees overhang from what is now an empty property (Finca in large grounds) we don't know who actually has the property now, we think it has been re-possesed.

I have a similar problem.  The Civil Code provides that large trees must be at least 2 metres from the boundary, and smaller ones 1 metre.  My understanding is that, as in England, you can cut them back to the boundary or require the owner to do so.  Theoretically you could get a Court Order enforcing these provisions but self-help is probably cheaper (and more effective).
