What to do if you choke on smoke from the neighbor's cigarettes? Russians have become more likely to sue neighbors who smoke in apartments and on balconies, while smoking in an apartment or on a personal balcony is not illegal per se, but smoke entering someone else's home can become grounds for litigation, Rosblatt writes. Where exactly should you avoid cigarettes? Smoking is prohibited in corridors, elevators, corridors and other common areas. There is a fine for the violation, and you can complain to the local police officer or the police. If smoke is coming from the neighbor's apartment, you should first try to negotiate. If this does not help, you need to collect evidence: acts of the management company, results of ventilation tests, photos and videos, correspondence and witness statements. Through the court you can demand to stop the actions that cause smoke to enter the apartment and compensate for moral damage. According to lawyers, the amount of such compensation is usually 5-20 thousand rubles. Photo: Pixabay Rosblatt in Max.
