hiring someone with an understanding of tree biology would be my
recommendation.

Is there any chance that you could actually offer something to the OP instead
of providing pre-perpared generic advice or suggesting they get a consultant
to advise them on this simple question. People ask these questions because
they want to do the right thing and to develop their own knowledge. You seem
to be more interested in drumming up business for your collegues.

In some cases the job is too big for the amateur or too complex to deal with
remotely. Now tell me why this case is like that. The choice is cut the top
or don't. Do you have an opinion or would you need to withdraw, convene and
consult? Or does your mouth not open until the wallet does.
