Please give my office a call so that we can get more information and provide you with a free consultation. If you are a contractor, depending on your relationship with the owner as a sub or gc, there are certain deadlines you have to follow to assert a lien. Under Indiana law there are certain warranties that apply to new home construction which would cover damages/defects. If your neighbor built a home and it damaged your home, you'd likely have a claim againts the contractor who built the neighbor's home. You probably have a requirement under your home insurance policy to notify your insurance of an occurence/event and cooperate with them as well.
