There’s nothing worse than being a unit owner in a building and seeing someone on your board breaking a rule and seemingly getting away with it.
Some board members believe that they are “above the law” so to speak, and seem to be operating under a different set of rules than the rest of the building. This could be anything from giving themselves preferential treatment for parking spots, flouting pet rules, fast-tracking their own alteration projects or voting on financial matters when they themselves are in arrears.
Marc H. Schneider, Esq., the managing partner of the law firm of Schneider Mitola LLP, with offices in Garden City and New York City, has seen his share of board members try to get away with things, and he does what he can to help right the ship.
