The “turnover” of control of a community association from the control of a developer-appointed board of directors to a board of directors elected by the unit owners is the single most important event in the existence of a community association.

The new unit owner board of directors is faced with a multiple challenges in its first years which include reviewing the turnover audit to determine financial claims, reviewing marketing and promotional material to determine whether the community association was delivered as promised and reviewing whether all of the improvements were built in accordance with applicable building codes, consistent with industry standards, and in accordance with the plans and specifications.

We have a dedicated team of professionals including attorneys, engineers and paralegals that have been involved with hundreds of turnovers that use their vast experience to ensure that your turnover is smooth, that your rights are fully protected, and that all of you claims are prosecuted competently and expeditiously.
