A Certified Arborist, Nick answers Bobs' questions and those of callers to the show. In the second interview, Bob talks to tree-specialist attorney at law Barri Kaplan Bonaparte. Among the subjects -- as pertinent today's ever -- discussed was, what options do you have when friendly negotiation about tree issues in the neighborhood break down.
