Assessment Collection Services via a Contingent Fee Retainer

Our firm offers a contingent fee retainer where we collect assessments for no charge to your Association. We believe delinquent homeowners should pay for the attorney fees and court costs for their failure to pay contractually obligated assessments, not your association. When a homeowner fails to respond to your management company or association’s letters and certified mail noticing them about your intent to send them to collections, we’re ready to take legal action.
