The nature of legal services needed by associations is as varied and individual as the associations themselves. Legal services for associations involve a combination of more conventional specialty areas including real property, corporations, litigation, contracts and insurance. Community association attorneys must be educators, problem preventers and solvers, corporate advisors, decision facilitators, and advocates. HindmanSanchez possesses all of these qualities, and expertise in representing associations. Associations are the only clients we represent. We have the practical experience associations need-without having to reinvent the wheel.

Since 1988, HindmanSanchez has handled the day-to-day general counsel work as well as litigation matters for associations. With 15 attorneys focusing their efforts on this area of the law, we have specialists for the battles, along with a team of even-tempered mediators who specialize in resolving disputes internally, interpreting and updating governing documents, reviewing insurance policies, drafting contracts, collecting assessments, enforcing covenant violations and assisting with transition to owner control and dealing with the questions that arise in the operation of an association's business.

We are dedicated to providing board members and association managers with the tools they need to do their jobs well. That's why we offer dozens of educational events every year to help you understand your legal duties and responsibilities-so that you can prevent legal problems altogether.

From amending documents to litigation, from covenant enforcement to assessment collections, we know community association law like no one else.
