Neighbor Is Threatening To Sue Over Tree Trimming

Location: Alameda County, California. My wife and neighbor were texting a few months back because a tree on her property was hanging over our property and touching our house. Long story short, we have it in a text saying she was okay with us "getting rid of it." Later she asked for a picture of which tree we were talking about (a picture which apparently she never received) and we never heard back from her so we moved forward with the trimming.

We hired a tree trimmer and told him to just trim the branches that were on our property line. I'm not sure if he may have gone over the property line a bit but for the most part I believe he stayed on our side. Well fast forward to today, my neighbor is threatening to sue, saying we vandalized her property and trespassed. She's trying to say he damaged her house (important note: her whole house looks damaged, almost like a rundown abandoned house). She's saying she's going to sue the tree cutter first then us. I'm not going to give her the name of the tree cutter but what are the legal implications of all of this? What if he did happen to cut some branches on her side?
