Hey Lake Griffin Estates neighbors! We’ve got something to chat about today—something that’s been quietly buzzing around our community for a while now. It’s our HOA’s choice of legal representation. Yep, we’re talking about that law firm that keeps sending out those pesky legal notices. Let’s dive in and see what’s really going on here.
Who’s Behind Those Legal Notices?
So, our HOA, managed by Beacon Property Management, has been working with a law firm, Ruggieri Law Firm, that has quite a reputation. And not in the “they’re awesome” kind of way. We’re talking about a firm with a 1.8 Google review rating. Yikes! That’s lower than the local pizza place that can’t get your order right.
Florida Section 720 for Home Owners Rights and Due Process
For those who might not be in the loop, Florida Section 720 is all about the rights and rules that govern homeowners associations. It’s supposed to protect us, the residents, from unfair practices. But guess what? Our friendly neighborhood law firm seems to have some trouble following these rules. They’re known for sending out legal notices with fees attached, without giving people their due process. Sound fair to you?
What Florida Section 720 Says About Due Process:
-
Any disciplinary action, like fines or suspension, must involve notice and a hearing.
-
Owners must be informed of violations and given a chance to respond.
Why Should We Care?
Let’s be real, nobody likes to get a legal notice, especially when it comes with surprise fees. It’s not just annoying; it’s a real problem that can affect our wallets and our peace of mind. This isn’t just a one-off issue either; it’s been happening for years. And for a community like ours, this kind of pattern isn’t something we should ignore.
What Can We Do About It?
First off, it’s super important to know your rights as a homeowner. You deserve transparency and fair treatment. If Ruggieri Law Firm, which you can check out here, isn’t up to the task, maybe it’s time for a change. Why should our hard-earned money go towards a law firm that’s not working in our best interest?
