Overview
Overview
O’Hagan Meyer advises and defends condominium and community associations in governance, operational, and litigation matters. With experience spanning both general counsel and insurance defense work, we provide a 360-degree perspective that helps clients manage risk, resolve disputes, and protect long-term community interests.
Condominiums and community associations operate within evolving statutory, regulatory, and governing document frameworks while striving to balance financial obligations, property concerns, and resident expectations. Our attorneys counsel boards and property managers on compliance, interpretation, and enforcement of governing documents, assessment collections, owner and resident disputes, risk management, and day-to-day operational issues. An integral part of our firm’s Real Estate, Homeowners Associations & Condominiums practice, we provide business-minded guidance to reduce exposure and support effective governance.
O’Hagan Meyer represents clients in litigation, arbitration, mediation, and negotiated resolutions, developing strategies informed by legal risk, reputational considerations, insurance coverage, and cost efficiency. Our experience includes defending associations, board members, and property managers in disputes involving:
- Fraud and breach of fiduciary duty claims
- Premises-related liability claims
- Personal injury and property damage claims
- Housing discrimination allegations
- Defamation claims
What distinguishes our practice is our integrated approach and holistic counsel. Because we regularly serve as general counsel, provide insurance defense representation, and litigate complex disputes, we understand how associations actually function and make decisions. This perspective enables us to identify issues early, assess exposure more accurately, and build more effective defense and resolution strategies than firms focused solely on governance or litigation.
Clients rely on us for effective advocacy in and out of court, and a practical, outcomes-focused strategy. With deep experience across governance, property-related disputes, insurance matters, and operations, we help our condo and community associations successfully navigate challenges while protecting their organizational stability, financial position, and the communities they serve.
