Homeowner Disputes
Millions of Californians live in communities that are governed by Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions ("CC&RS") and managed by homeowner association ("HOA") boards of directors. Law Offices of Ronald A. Hartmann attorneys represent homeowner associations and/or their members involved in disputes with the developer of their community. Typical disputes involve the original developer's setting of the monthly homeowner association dues artificially low so that after the developer turns over the control of the HOA to the homeowner members, the HOA must increase monthly assessments to pay for the actual costs of managing the community. Another common dispute involves the developer's failure to build all the promised common area facilities. Law Offices of Ronald A. Hartmann handles these types of issues on behalf of homeowner associations, individual homeowners or by class actions on behalf of entire communities.
