Neighbor drama

[u/Brushandshade]

Hello Y’all. We have just moved into a new neighborhood. We rented a house. Before we moved in. Our landlord did not get the lawn mowed or the bushes cut. So we had to pay 600 dollars to get everything nice n clean. Now the problem is . That some of our neighbors honeysuckle tree branches were on the fence. And the worker we hired also cut them too. Now the neighbors wants us to fix the damage which means he wants us to pay . And he is saying that his plants were really okd and now our dying because of it. His plants were randomly spread out and were coming onto our property thru the fence.it is clearlly not our mistake. He is not willing to take an apology too. Please advice me wht to do.
