CommScope Holding Employees: Navigating the Financial Implications of Fallen Tree Damage on Your Property

Healthcare Provider Update: Healthcare Provider for CommScope Holding CommScope Holding employs its workforce through an array of benefits, including health insurance offerings provided primarily by major insurers such as UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, and Blue Cross Blue Shield. These were selected due to their extensive national coverage and tailored plans that address various employee healthcare needs. Predictions on Healthcare Cost Increases in 2026 In 2026, healthcare costs are poised for dramatic increases, reflecting a perfect storm of factors affecting the Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace. Premiums for ACA plans are expected to rise sharply, with some states reporting hikes over 60%. This surge is driven by a combination of rising medical costs and the possible expiration of enhanced federal subsidies, which means that many enrollees could see their premiums skyrocket by over 75%. As a result, employees at CommScope Holding should strategically consider their healthcare options early to prepare for the financial implications ahead. Click here to learn more

Are CommScope Holding employees responsible for the damage caused by a tree on their property that hits their neighbor’s home or other insured structure, such as a garage or shed?

In most cases, the answer is “no.”

When such damage occurs to your neighbor’s home due to forces outside your control (e.g., weather events), your neighbors may have to file a claim with their insurer to receive a reimbursement for the damage a fallen down tree caused.

There is one exception, however.

If it is determined that the tree damage stems from your negligence (e.g., dead limbs that you refused to cut down, or you chose to trim your tree as a weekend project), then the neighbor’s insurer may come after you to recover their loss—a process called subrogation.¹

You may want to check your policy or speak to your insurance agent to ascertain if your homeowner's policy covers your liability in cases of negligence.

Some neighbors may seek to bring legal action against you, though often that is unnecessary.

For those working at CommScope Holding, determine what municipal laws are in place to cover such instances. Generally speaking, you are not responsible unless you knew, or should have known, about the danger. Proving what you knew or should have known can be difficult and costly in a court of law. It typically benefits both parties to arrive at a compromise that avoids an expensive legal process.
