Manhattan Co-Op/Condo Representation Lawyer
At the Jackson Heights, New York, law office of David B. Schachter, Attorney at Law, we advise and represent several cooperative or condominium buildings in a variety of legal matters. Please contact our firm today to discuss your situation and learn about our professional, experienced co-op/condo representation.
Our experienced representation can assist New York co-op/condo boards and buildings in any number of situations. For example, building management may need to amend bylaws. We let them know what existing bylaws say, how they change them and what it takes to do so. We can also let them know whether they have to hold a meeting with the members of the association or how much notice they have to give.
Other situations may involve a friend or relative staying/living in the co-op without the permission of co-op management. Co-op buildings have strong control of what goes on in a building including who is permitted to buy a unit and even who can live there. Moreover, even if management grants a friend or relative permission to stay, it still needs to be approved by the other tenants. Our dispute resolution attorney has effectively handled scenarios where a friend or relative staying in the co-op building has been met with disapproval by either co-op management, the tenants or both.
The nonpayment of management fees is yet another situation that applies to both our co-op and condo clients. Frequently, tenants or property owners neglect to pay these fees and, as a result, we are retained to obtain the moneys owed.
Lastly, we provide co-op/condo representation to those buildings considering renovations to properties. We assist the board in finding an architect, hiring and negotiating with contractors and obtaining financing to carry out the renovations.
Please contact us for comprehensive co-op/condo representation.
