Naperville Condominium & Homeowner Association Lawyer

DuPage County Real Estate Lawyer for HOA Bylaws and Condominium Ownership

While condominium units are owned separately, the common areas and facilities are all owned and operated through the building’s homeowners’ association. All individual owners must pay fees to the association as well as follow the rules, regulations, and declarations of the group. However, sometimes issues arise within the condominium owners' or the homeowners’ association that require the need for an attorney. Our office has successfully worked with clients on many different types of condominium and homeowners’ association issues, and we can help your building with the same.

Types of Condo and HOA Issues

Our office has experience dealing with a wide variety of condominium and homeowners’ association issues. We can handle anything from a building with less than 10 units to complexes with thousands of individual owners. The attorneys at Lindell & Tessitore, P.C. have the background in real estate, business, and commercial law to successfully handle all types of claims, including:

  • Drafting governing documents;
  • Drafting HOA bylaws;
  • Compliance issues;
  • Easements and conversions;
  • Employment issues;
  • Declarations;
  • Evictions and collections;
  • Dispute resolution;
  • Covenant violations;
  • Zoning;
  • Vendors and contracts; and
  • Other issues that commonly arise with condominium ownership and homeowners’ associations.

In addition to dealing with existing condominiums and homeowners’ associations, our office is also prepared to help establish these entities and buildings as well. We can help close on real estate, clear the title, file the proper paperwork, and draft the original documents. Our office can also help develop the legal framework for the individual condominium units within the building in addition to the rules and regulations of the homeowners’ association.

Illinois Condo and HOA Law

Under Illinois law, the Condominium Property Act, Common Interest Community Association Act, and the Community Association Manager Licensing Act control the majority of the rules, laws, and regulations regarding condominium ownership and homeowners’ association governance. The Association of Condominium, Townhouse, and Homeowners’ Associations (ACTHA) is a nonpartisan group that posts updates on the latest Illinois changes to condominium and homeowners’ association laws.

One important note about condominium and homeowners’ association law that most people are not aware of is that Illinois case law has established that an association’s governing documents and bylaws can provide for the recovery of attorney’s fees. If an association is entitled to enforce its covenants, and it has provided in its paperwork for the recovery of attorney’s fees, the association’s costs can be covered if the court allows it.
