Principal And Partner
CurrentA practicing attorney since 1978, I concentrate on the representation of condominium, homeowner, townhome, and not-for-profit associations, as well as civil litigation and personal injury. I take pride in keeping clients out of court, and – when court is unavoidable – in preventing them from being successfully sued. I believe that to be an effective attorney, one must empathize with the client, and that requires understanding the totality of the client’s circumstances, not just their legal predicament. My legal services include: •Reviewing and drafting governing documents (including Declarations, Amendments, and Rules and Regulations)•Unit owner violation issues•Contract review•FHA CertificationLitigation, including:◦Building code violations◦Housing discrimination complaints◦Breach of contract◦Insurance defenseDeveloper issues, including:◦Developer-to-owner transitions◦Construction defect disputes◦Reserve funding•Real estate tax reduction•Interpretation of statutes and case law•Annual report filing and registered agent services•Assessment collection•Foreclosure monitoring •Assistance with board meetings•Draft rental restitution policies•Audit letters•Risk management
