Legal Guidance For Housing Agreements

At Gettinger Waldinger Monteleone Gushue & Hollis, LLP, we offer personal, tailored and experienced guidance to condominium boards. Boards are often made up of volunteers who are not attorneys and who at times need support in understanding the roles, responsibilities and requirements of condominium administration. We can help.

We stay abreast of changes and developments in the law and advise boards as to the necessary updates to policies that must be made. We negotiate major construction contracts and vendor agreements and provide skilled dispute resolution services. We also provide representation before administrative agencies and are experienced litigators.
