Last year, I moved back home to care for my mother who was diagnosed with terminal cancer and given months to live.
Her neighbour's behaviour during the time I was caring for her and also since mum has passed away was manipulative, damaging and I now wish to pursue this legally if possible.
Her behaviour includes the following:
- Trying to force my mother out of her house by getting Mum's lawnmower guy to put animal and I believe human feces around her property.
- Lawnmower guy poisoned her favourite tree when instructed not to touch it.
- Potentially tapping and listening in to Mum's phone calls and other conversations in the house (strong circumstantial evidence).
- Harassing my mother to pay for things on Mum's property while the neighbour did things like earthworks without a development approval.
- Breaches of privacy and use of information gained in those breaches.
- Attending the hospice where Mum was when instructed not to in front of witnesses.
- Complicit in breaches of privacy at the hospital and hospice where Mum as being treated / cared for.
- Sexual advances towards me when I first moved here seemingly for the purpose of wanting to 'team up' to sell both properties to developers after Mum had passed; which she then reneged on after Mum actually passed.
- Placement of rubbish on the front of Mum's property.
- Accessing Mum's house in order to steal keys for the house.
- Accessing Mum's house with the stolen keys.
- Slander of me to my mother (while I was there) at the hospice she was told not to visit.
- Slander of me to hospice social worker.
- Slander of me to neighbours.
Nearly all of these points have associated evidence and / or witnesses.
Her actions have caused me extreme distress, symptoms of paranoia and post traumatic stress disorder.
To top it off she is a practising psychologist who should know the impact of her actions but chooses to ignore those facts in what I would describe as a sociopathic manner.
I need help, please.
Typically, do people sue for this? How long does that take? What would be the compensation? What would be a ballpark figure on legal fees? Should I get the police involved?
Any and all information, even if just opinion will be valued and viewed in a subjective way.
This was such an incredibly tough time for Mum and me (as sole carer) and it was / has been irreparably marred by someone we did not even want in either of our lives but who kept forcing herself into our lives.
Please help if you can.
Thanks in advance.
