Enforcement of Governing Documents (CC&Rs, Rules and Regulations, Architectural Guidelines, etc.)

Beaumont Gitlin Tashjian brings experience and results to the bargaining table in disputes faced by community associations, from the most basic to the most complex matters. Our legal team has successfully prosecuted thousands of lawsuits against non-complying owners and residents, gaining their compliance and obtaining reimbursement of attorney’s fees and costs incurred during the process. We evaluate and investigate claims with the goal of expedient and cost-effective resolution through settlement or, if necessary, trial. We understand the impact non-compliance and litigation have on a community and strive for a balance between successful enforcement and prompt resolution.

• New and revised laws have dramatically affected community associations to the extent that governing documents may violate current laws.
• Changing societal circumstances such as mold issues and earthquakes are not addressed by current governing documents.
• Original documents were often drafted by a developer and have not kept pace with the association’s specific and current needs.
