I live in a cul-de sac in a housing association flat There is often kids and teenagers playing football even though there are signs up saying no ball games! If they cause dammage to my propertey or cars am i in a legal position to claim against their parents if they are under a certain age or against them if they are classed as legaly responsible for themselves also if the damage is caused by their friends can i hold them responsible as the tennancy agreement states that they are responsible for visitors to their propertey. if so how do i make a claim and what are the ages i can claim against do i go to my housing association? solicitor ? police ? Citezenz advice?|||to be honest the best bet instead of causing more problems is GO to the parents don't be quick to sue , if the parents want to be jerks then call the police tell the police you kindly went and spoke to them first so to avoid sueing them and then the police will make out a report and then you give it to your insurance company then they may go after the parents of the children..you want whats best for you and your neighbors..so start with a kind talking to|||I believe you could make a legit complaint. I would suggest contacting an attorney and also, contact your housing association. If it says in the rules that they are responsible...then bottom line...they are responsible. No brain surgery there. I would be contacting all proper people asap|||Yes, You can hold them responsible. If they are minors, then their parents will pay for the damage they cause. They have to stay off your property, but do have the right to play in the street. However, if they damage your car, or property from the street, they are responsible. Make sure you take pictures, and document your case.|||Of course you could make a claim. It may be classified as non criminal damage. Report it to your housing association. If necessary, make out a Police report, and notify your insurance company.|||as there are signs up against people playing football etc then you are in your right to claim against damage there are also fines for the culprits who ignore these warnings we have the same were we live .1st you have to report it to the people whom put the signs up then they will let you know who to report the damage to if you have any .|||Best available citizens advice? Get to know your neighbors on a personal level, rather than preparing to sue them for damages that haven't happened yet. Kids will play- it doesn't matter how unchild-friendly the homeowners association has made itself. But, by getting to know the kids, they're likely to have more respect for you and your property. Plus, you might get some new friends out of the deal. It's easy to do, just bake a tray of cookies, and knock on doors. Everyone likes to meet their neighbors. Unnecessary litigation just causes hostility on the street where you live.|||go and have a word with the parents first, see how you get on, if no joy then report it to your local police and council, keep dates and times of everything, they go to cab office and they will help you from start to finish,they are great,hope that helps, all the best.|||Having read the replies to you first, I would agree that you can report them or their parents. Having suffered verbal abuse and threats from a neighbour simply because I gave a child a telling off for helping to wreck my garden in the name of the word "playing", I followed this up, especially as adults also became involved. You can try being nice to neighbours but it doesn't work sometimes. Complain to the Council in the first instance. Get someone as a witness and also take photos of the damage and try to catch them doing it on camera. It all helps|||yes you can claim but it might be difficult to prove|||Yes, you have rights against both them and their parents as well as the landlord.Take your written tenant agreement and go talk to a lawyer to get the details for your state.|||contact brian damage, then give them a kicking
