Condominium Law
Condominiums in DC and Maryland face tougher challenges than ever. Boards and management need guidance to navigate these challenges, and an effective advocate to assist in winning tough cases. FLS provides experienced and knowledgeable advice and zealous representation to condominiums throughout the region.
Homeowners Association Law
Today’s HOAs are tasked with the jobs of protecting property values, maximizing benefits, reducing costs, and keeping the peace in their communities. Sometimes this calls for drafting new documents or rules, and other times it calls for resolving disputes. FLS has the background and ability to navigate these matters simply and effectively.
Cooperative Association Law
Similar to condominiums but nuanced enough to require their own statutes and body of law, cooperatives are becoming a more popular and more common method of home ownership. The combination of corporate law, real estate law, and court rules that govern cooperatives can leave even the most savvy of Boards feeling confused or in need of direction. FLS provides legal representation, advice, and litigation services to cooperatives in Maryland and DC.
Consumer and Commercial Collections
A licensed debt collector, FLS is well versed in the FDCPA, state collection laws, and the tools of the trade. Using a combination of aggressive court action, reasoned negotiation of payment plans, and liens and foreclosures against property, FLS collects debts on behalf of clients who otherwise might never see their funds again.
Litigation
Fewer cases (and fewer attorneys) than ever are going to court, trial, and judgment these days. At FLS, litigating contracts, torts, business disputes, land use issues, and more is a core part of what the firm does. When you have to go to court, make sure you have someone you trust in your corner.
