Cooperative and Condominium Board

Rivkin Radler Provides legal representation to the boards of numerous condominium and cooperative associations. The group counsels boards, managing agents and owners of unsold shares and blocks of condominium units in all aspects of condominium and cooperative law. Services include, dispute resolution, interpreting by-laws, proprietary leases and condominium declarations and redrafting outdated corporate documents to bring them into compliance with current law. The group assists condominium boards in resolving a wide variety of issues from the collection of unpaid common charges to quality of life issues. The group enforces rules and litigates, when necessary, against residential and commercial unit owners, lenders and defaulting sponsors. The group is particularly adept at resolving unit owner arrears through practical and cost-effective strategies that have achieved positive results for the law firm’s condominium clients. The group’s vast experience litigating construction defect claims and sponsor control issues has been invaluable to boards of newly constructed buildings and conversion projects alike.
