It depends a great deal on just how close your radio and antenna are to your neighbor's stuff, and how much power and/or modifications you've done to your radio. The worst case being that your neighbor's stuff just may not be very RF 'resistant', more common than people want to think. If that's the case, every low-pass filter in the world isn't gonna help you. If your transmitter is 'clean' to start with, a low-pass filter ~might~ help the situation, depends on that RF 'resistance' thingy. The only sure way of stopping the interference is distance.
Not much help, huh? Well, without knowing a lot more about the situation than I do, that's about as 'close' as I can get. Sorry 'bout that.
Most interference problems can be 'cured'. Some are much more difficult than others (mainly involves 'their' equipment and it's faults). The really bad part is that a CB'er has no recourse any more...
