Matilda Brauer
Founding attorney: board counsel and governing documents
Advises volunteer boards and rewrites the documents they live under.
The firm
Three lawyers, three kinds of table
One lawyer for the board, one for assessments, one for the homeowner. We divide the work so that no one at the firm sits on both sides of a community.
Hiram Aldridge
Attorney: assessments and collections
Writes collection policies and payment plans for associations.
Verity Dalrymple
Attorney: homeowner disputes
Answers violation letters and goes to hearings with homeowners.
How we divide the work
One side of a community, never both
Every community we work with has one client at the firm.
Matilda and Hiram act for associations. Verity acts for homeowners in communities where the firm does not advise the association. We check for a conflict before the first real conversation, and tell you if we cannot take the matter.
A conflict check before any documents change hands
No lawyer here acts for both sides of a community
If we can't help, we say so and suggest where to look
