We can guide you through State Office of Administrative Hearings (SOAH) in addition to other water-related litigation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Home Owners Association (HOA) Law<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 If you are dealing with an\u00a0HOA\u00a0issue, you may be unsure of your rights as a property manager. We can help with common area disputes, collection matters, restrictions, insurance claims, and more.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/girlinglaw.com\/eviction-landlord-representation\/\"><strong>Eviction Suits<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Our property management attorney can help you with residential and commercial evictions.

We can help you understand both your duties and rights according to state laws, leases, and other legal documents. Our property management attorney will evaluate your legal documents as well as guide you through legal claims.<\/p>\n<h2>Limiting Your Personal Liability as a Property Manager<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s important to limit your own personal liability as a property manager. This means that the company you work for or the organization you form will be responsible for legal issues that may arise. You do not want to be personally held accountable for the duties and responsibilities of the company or organization.<\/p>\n<p>Property managers who form limited liability companies or otherwise incorporate can form a protective entity between themselves and tenants. When tenants have issues, they address them with the company instead of an individual. This protects personal assets as well as relationships that live outside of the property management environment.<\/p>\n<p>Property managers often need separate legal representation from the company or organization that owns the property itself. This provides separation of your rights and responsibilities. Our property management attorney will focus on your needs and help protect you throughout the legal process.<\/p>\n<h2>How a Property Management Attorney Can Help You<\/h2>\n<p>If you are managing a property, you may have many legal needs.
