Condominium & Homeowners Association Litigation<\/b><\/p>

Disputes involving condominium and homeowners associations often arise from property damage, maintenance obligations, governance issues, and the interpretation of governing documents under Florida\u2019s condominium and community association laws.<\/p>

Harold B. Klite Truppman represents condominium unit owners, homeowners, associations, and businesses in litigation involving community association disputes throughout Florida, with particular emphasis on\u00a0property damage claims involving common elements and building systems.<\/p>

These matters frequently involve:<\/p>

  • Water damage and mold claims resulting from failure to maintain common elements<\/li>
  • Damage caused by roofs, plumbing stacks, exterior walls, and other building systems<\/li>
  • Claims against associations for failure to repair or maintain common areas<\/li>
  • Damage caused by neighboring units (pipes, appliances, HVAC systems, etc.)<\/li>
  • Disputes involving special assessments and major building repairs<\/li>
  • Insurance coverage disputes involving association property damage<\/li>
  • Enforcement and interpretation of condominium declarations and governing documents<\/li>
  • Breach of fiduciary duty by association boards<\/li><\/ul>
    \u00a0<\/div>

    Many owner claims arise when an association fails to maintain or repair common elements as required under the condominium declaration and Florida law. In such cases, the dispute is often governed by the association\u2019s governing documents and may involve breach of contract claims as well as property damage claims.<\/p>

    With more than three decades of litigation experience, Mr. Truppman represents clients in mediation, arbitration, and court proceedings involving condominium and homeowners association disputes.<\/p>

    The limitations period for negligence claims is 4 years.  A good attorney will make sure to style the cause of action as a Breach of Contract Action against the Association to take advantage of the longer limitation\u2019s period as well as the prevailing party attorney\u2019s fee provisions in the condo declaration.  It is always important to keep these limitations in mind and consult with a Florida Condo Lawyer  that focuses on representing condo owners.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
