Association Landlord-Tenant Disputes We Resolve

Our attorneys bring years of focused experience representing HOAs, condominium boards, and cooperative housing corporations in landlord-tenant matters. These disputes often involve overlapping legal frameworks that require careful, strategic handling.

We work to protect our clients' legal interests while preserving the integrity of the community, emphasizing proactive problem-solving and long-term stability for the associations we serve.

Addressing Harmful or Disruptive Conduct

Serious lease or rule violations can threaten the well-being of an entire community. Our attorneys help associations respond with tailored legal action, strong documentation, and clear communication to limit exposure and liability.

We have represented boards in matters involving:

  • Harassment or intimidation of neighbors or staff
  • Unauthorized unit alterations or construction
  • Noise disturbances that exceed acceptable levels
  • Unauthorized subletting arrangements
  • Damage caused by willful or negligent behavior
  • Violations of pet policies

We begin with early investigation, working closely with property managers and boards to assess documentation and legal standing, then determine whether administrative enforcement, settlement, or court intervention offers the best path forward. Our attorneys have obtained summary judgments and favorable appellate rulings that strengthen board authority.

Recovering Delinquent Maintenance Payments

Maintenance arrears create operational risk that boards need to manage swiftly. We apply a combination of lender negotiations, legal filings, and structured payment planning to recover delinquent charges while protecting the association's long-term financial health. This includes:

  • Filing and pursuing foreclosure actions
  • Structuring payment plans with enforceable terms
  • Drafting lender recognition agreements
  • Negotiating full or partial arrears settlements
  • Drafting compliant documentation across all stages
  • Recovering funds via income or asset-based strategies

We also counsel boards on monitoring future payment compliance and building protective provisions into new shareholder agreements.

Collecting Interest on Delinquent Accounts

We help associations use interest provisions effectively, turning delayed payments into recoverable revenue that can matter significantly to year-end financial stability.

  • Lease analysis and enforcement of interest terms
  • Interest calculation and supporting documentation
  • Legal filings and collections strategy
  • Recovery of legal fees and associated costs
  • Settlement design with interest built in
  • Pursuing full enforcement of final judgments
