Associations routinely find that they have been lax or inconsistent in enforcing covenant, condition, rules or regulations ("Rules and Regulations") of the Governing Documents.  Unfortunately, the Association's ability to proceed with enforcing such Rules and Regulations may have become problematic.  However, all may not be lost, and the Association may be able to re-establish its rights to enforce such Rules and Regulations. To bolster its right to enforce its Rules and Regulations, we recommend that we draft a "Rehabilitation Letter" for the Association to send to each of its owners and occupants.  While the purpose of the letter is much more involved than will be described herein, in essence, the letter apprises all the owners and other  occupants that they can no longer rely upon the Association's past failure to enforce violations or infractions of its Rules and Regulations as a justification for future or continuing violations or infractions.  The "Rehabilitation Letter" endeavors to "restart the clock" such that the Association will be well-positioned to timely, uniformly, consistently and properly enforce its Documents thereafter.   As you might guess, this is a very popular service for Associations that have not been diligent in enforcing their Rules and Regulations.  This is a situation where the Association can obtain a "big bang for the buck."  Additionally, we find that the Rehabilitation Letter also assists with another one of our recommendations, which is to always attempt to build and foster the credibility of the Association. 

All of our fixed rate services have been designed for Community Associations such as yours.  Please understand that these legal services are offered as fixed rates and/or deferred fee services, but our clients are not required to use these services.  These services were created to save the Association money and to provide certainty to the cost of various commonly needed or requested legal (and other) services so Associations could better budget for some commonly needed legal services.  If you would like more information on any of the specific services discussed, please call or e-mail our office and request more information about that service and what services are rendered.  Remember, you are under no obligation to purchase any fixed fee packages.  We do not generally require a mandatory retainer for our Community Association clients.
