Monday, December 17th, 2018 in Condo, HOA, Legal, Pets, Uncategorized by FAN

Tuesday, August 29th, 2017 in Announcements, Condo, HOA, Legal, Pets, Safety, Service Animals by FAN

Can a Florida condominium, homeowners’, and cooperative association have liability for its members’ dog bites? Apparently, the answer is yes, it surely can.

Maser, held that an association could be found liable where there was sufficient evidence from which […]

Word of the Week: Rules and Regulations

Wednesday, November 5th, 2014 in Announcements, Condo, Contracts, HOA, Legal, Management, Pets by FAN

The word this week is Rules and Regulations.
