Insurance Dispute Litigation

If you are having a problem with an insurance company, whether your claim has been denied or a low offer of money has been made you should seek legal assistance from an attorney who is familiar with handling insurance claims and disputes.

Insurance Companies: Bad Faith Claims and Litigation

If an insurance company limits or denies you coverage without reasonable justification, the insurance company may be acting in bad faith. Bad faith on the part of an insurance company violates your rights and, if proven in a lawsuit against the company, may result in an award of damages and attorney fees to you as the claimant. When an insurance company denies your claim, however, you have the burden of proof in establishing that your insurance policy covers the claim that you have submitted.

Condo/Homeowners Association Law

The Glassman Legal Group’s expertise in real property and complex real estate law matters can provide you with a unique advantage if you are faced with a legal issue relative to your Condo or Homeowners' Association membership.

The growth in the Florida housing market has led to a marked increase in the number of condo and homeowners' associations. The attorneys at The Glassman Legal Group provide guidance to homeowners groups both large and small. Many association directors are new to board membership and are unfortunately unfamiliar with the statutes, rules and regulations and legal requirements required by Florida homeowners' association laws. Our attorney’s provide skilled mediation, negotiation, and arbitration services to help resolve disputes quickly. If our clients need to go to trial, attorney Lee Glassman is committed to the aggressive, efficient prosecution and defense of her clients' disputes.

Homeowner Associations' Practice Areas:

  • Contract Negotiation
  • Transition from Developer Control
  • Review, Interpretation and Amendment of the Community Association's documents
  • Corporate Compliance
  • Attendance and Counsel at Board Meetings and Member Meetings where necessary
  • Litigation, Mediation and Arbitration
  • Insurance & Security Disputes, Settlements and Negotiations
  • Collections, Liens and Foreclosures
  • Code Enforcement Proceedings

Florida’s Homeowners' Association laws are complex and it can be difficult for members of the association to protect their rights if they are not aware of the dispute resolution measures required prior to formal dispute resolution under Florida statutes. If you are facing legal issues relative to your homeowners' association membership, or as a result of your role on the board of directors of a homeowners' association, contact our experienced attorney Lee Glassman in order to protect your rights.
