Half dead tree was created by Shinxy

Hello all, i need some advice on what to do. I inherited a bonsai tree that was sadly neglected for a few years before I got it. Half of the tree is green and alive and the other is dead, I think. I would like to save the tree is possible. Thanks

my first guess would be that it has some kind of root problem (unless it got hit by lightning :dry: )
Try this post by Harry Harrington on his website www.bonsai4me.co.uk/AdvTech/ATRootRot.html

Hope this helps,

Ed

P.s. if it was lightning, there's a chance it will pull through ;)

The weeds probably don't help much, how long has it been in that pot?
