Advising Associations On Legal Compliance In Florida


Homeowners associations (HOA) and condominium associations each face a plethora of unique laws and regulations in Florida.

At the law firm of Frese, Whitehead & Anderson, P.A., in Melbourne, our real estate lawyers advise HOAs throughout the state about how to operate in compliance with the numerous legal restrictions. We also regularly represent condominium associations, which must comply with a different set of laws. In practice since 1989, our law firm is a respected choice for a broad spectrum of real estate matters.

Resolving Disputes Between Associations And Homeowners

Frese, Whitehead & Anderson, P.A., is also available to represent either the homeowner or the association in various types of financial disagreements. Such disputes may stem from questions such as the following:

  • If the house has a structural flaw, such as cracking walls, should the financial burden be placed on the unit owner or the whole association?
  • If the HVAC system goes out or all the seaward-facing balconies need to be reglazed, who is responsible for repairs?
  • If the resident in the condo above has a leaky aquarium that caused water damage to the unit below, is that resident or the association liable?

We can help answer these questions and seek a resolution short of litigation. If the matter does proceed to trial, our clients can rely on our extensive litigation experience.

To Our Valuable Clients:


The federal government has recently enacted legislation to assist citizens and businesses facing uncertain financial challenges due to COVID-19. We are here to help answer questions and guide you through the details of the various processes to procure financial assistance from our government. The acts are very new and more will probably be coming. But they currently provide for dollar for dollar tax credits for payroll for COVID19 related payroll, cash advances and loans that have tremendously favorable terms and in some cases, total forgiveness of the debt.

Please stay as safe as possible during this terrible crisis and if we can help you with questions about the new federal assistance laws, please contact us.

We Can Tailor A Solution To Meet Your Needs.
