If they interwine with your power line, why are you not calling the electric company? They do this for free if it going to knock their lines down.

I know my answer's late but I think any injury to the guy might be paid by your homeowner's insurance, as well as any damages he might cause to your house.

My dad was an insurance agent for 35 years. I remember one storm that blew through the area and took down trees right and left. There weren't enough licensed/insured contractors available to shore up damaged roofs. One of his policyholders had an unlicensed/uninsured man removing a tree from the roof and it slipped causing even more damage to the home. The tree guy wasn't injured but the insurance company paid for the damages he caused under the same claim.
