When Your Condo Becomes a Legal Headache

Owning a condo in Florida can be a smart investment and a great way to enjoy community living—until problems arise. Whether it’s a leak from another unit, a damaged roof, or an unresponsive association, condo owners often find themselves caught between maintenance obligations and unclear responsibilities.

Under Florida law, condominium associations are legally required to maintain and repair common areas such as roofs, walls, and plumbing systems. When they fail to act, it can leave owners with property damage, unpaid repair bills, and unnecessary stress. Too often, associations delay or ignore requests, forcing owners to take time off work and spend money out of pocket.

If your condo board refuses to respond or repair, you have rights protected by Florida Statute 718, also known as The Condominium Act. This law clearly outlines what associations must do—and what owners can demand. It allows you to pursue reimbursement, enforce repairs, and even recover legal fees when the board neglects its duties.

Our team helps condo owners navigate these complex situations with confidence. We handle the communication, document the damage, and, when necessary, take legal action to protect your home and your finances.

Don’t let your association’s neglect destroy your peace of mind. Contact us today to learn how we can help you enforce your rights as a Florida condo owner.

Protect Your Rights as a Condo Owner.

If you have property in a condominium or homeowners association, the Association may be responsible for any damage caused to your unit for anything other than your fault.

Did your unit suffer damages for water intrusion?
Is the association failing to meet its responsibilities?
Would you like to change the members of the current board?

If you answer “YES” to any of these questions, we are here to help!

What is Failure to Maintain?

The duties of a community association include management and control of the common areas, including the roof, exterior walls, spaces between the units, and common plumbing and pipes.

In any instance, the association governing documents should be reviewed to determine any specific duties and responsibilities of the association. You may be eligible for recovery if the association has failed to fulfill its duties and your unit sustained damages as a result.

Furthermore, if you are not satisfied with the current politics of your condominium or homeowners association, we can assist you in removing board members. You are as much of an owner as the board members are.

When water leaks into your condominium

Whether from a roof, shared plumbing, or another unit—the damage can be expensive and stressful. Under Florida law, condominium associations are usually responsible for repairs to common areas. If your association refuses to act, you need a lawyer who will hold them accountable and protect your investment.
