  Tree 1 - Lillac Request to reduce height and spread of lilac by 1-2ft, take back to a suitable side branch, leaving a natural form. This will lightly thin the canopy and reduce the weight of the branches, to avoid branch failure. The low horizontal branch could be heavily shortened back also, to reduce the possibility of failure. Tree 2 - Mulberry Request to reduce mulberry crown by 1-3ft, the branch on the western side of the tree to be shortened back by 2-4ft, shorten back to a suitable side branch, leaving a natural form. Lightly thin the canopy, taking out any crossing branches. There are signs of the root plate lifting, this reduction should take weight out of the tree.
