Fundamentals of Community Association Law

Francis J. McGovern will be a presenter at the program, “Fundamentals of Community Association Law”, presented in cooperation with NJSBA Real Property Trust and Estate Law Section and the New Jersey Chapter of the Community Associations Institute.

Community associations constantly confront a broad spectrum of issues in managing the affairs of the residents of condominiums and other planned communities.  There is no shortage of problems and concerns arising from common interest ownership due to the mandatory membership of owners in associations, governance by an elected board, shared amenities and services, and the obligation to follow rules and regulations and to pay common expense assessments.  The tools to resolve the legal issues faced by these associations span several legal practice areas– business, real estate, litigation, environmental, bankruptcy, collections, administrative law, to name just a few.

In this program (which has been brought back due to popular demand), a highly experienced panel of community association law experts will introduce the fundamentals of community association law, and give a foundation and resources to deal with issues confronted by associations, their governing boards, owners, and other professionals, such as managing agents, accountants, and engineers.
