Legal Assistance for Homeowners

Homeowners need to be represented in disputes with their associated HOA, as there can be a disparity of power between them and the association. Though the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) deals with some issues related to homeowners associations, there is no specific agency that mediates disputes. This means that some situations may require you to sue the HOA in order to get a ruling on the controversy between you and the association. An Orlando homeowners association lawyer from Bogin, Munns & Munns can help you do just that.

Before making the decision to sue, however, it’s important to understand your situation. The agreement between you and your homeowner’s association is a contract, which means that both parties must legally abide by the requirements. Common requirements associated with these contracts can include:

  • Restrictions on the ownership of pets
  • Fence height regulations
  • Bans on certain colors of paint for home exteriors
  • Restrictions on developing land or adding on to existing home structures
  • Regulations on “attractive nuisances,” such as pools or playground equipment

If you have clearly violated your contract, chances are good that you will need to rectify the situation and that the court would side with the HOA. However, there are some situations in which the HOA leaders may overstep their bounds, hold you to non-binding or legally dubious requirements, or otherwise violate your rights. Bogin, Munns & Munns can represent you in these matters and ensure that your interests are protected. Call (407) 578-1334 to speak with one of our Homeowners Association lawyers.

Legal Assistance for Associations

Enforcing HOA bylaws can be a difficult task, especially when a homeowner is resistant to compliance. If a homeowner refuses to honor the contract they signed when purchasing their HOA-governed property, legal action might be necessary in order to ensure they follow the HOA guidelines.

As Orlando homeowners association attorneys, the team at Bogin, Munns & Munns has represented many HOAs throughout Florida. Though there is no governmental agency that enforces HOA contracts, they are still legal contracts that have consequences if they are not followed. Our attorneys can help you enforce your rules, including:

  • Seeking collections from non-compliant residents
  • Clarifying the wording and binding nature of contracts
  • Enforcing liens or the payment of HOA fees
  • Negotiating with opposing attorneys for the homeowner
  • Representing your HOA in court if a resolution is not forthcoming

Condo Associations

Florida Statute §718 governs condominiums and condominium associations. Condos are a popular choice throughout Florida, as they are large living spaces that still have all the benefits of an apartment complex. For example, the condo association’s contract with condo owners can include fees for services like:

  • Exterior yard work and maintenance
  • Water supply maintenance
  • Pool maintenance and cleaning
  • Upkeep for common areas like foyers, theaters, and clubhouses

As HOA lawyers in Orlando, the team at Bogin, Munns & Munns also represents both condominium owners and condo associations in contract disputes. Our attorneys work diligently to ensure that our clients’ interests are protected and that the contracts they sign are honored without trampling on our clients’ rights.
