Representation for homeowners
Stand up to improper rule enforcement
Homeowners reach out when they feel rules are being applied
unevenly, fines are excessive, or the board is acting outside its authority. We review covenants and bylaws, assess whether procedures were followed, and represent homeowners in negotiation, mediation, or court when needed.

Associations and property managers also need reliable legal direction. We help boards draft and amend covenants, advise on meetings and elections, guide lawful collections of dues, and manage disputes in a way that reduces risk for the community.
