There are many aspects to planned community law, and it is essential to hire an attorney knowledgeable and experienced in this area of the law. We have extensive experience in this area of the law and currently represent many Associations throughout Southwestern Pennsylvania on an as-needed basis. Intricate state laws and legal requirements apply to common interest communities in Pennsylvania, including the Uniform Condominium Act, Real Estate Cooperative Act, Uniform Planned Community Act, and the Pennsylvania Non-Profit Corporation Law. It is important to understand how these statutes impact your Association and ensure compliance. These statutes are regularly changed by the legislatures.

We regularly follow any changes to these laws and advise Associations as to any necessary amendments to the governing documents of the Association required by changes in the law. LMBH is a member of the Keystone Chapter of the Community Association Institute (CAI). The CAI regularly publishes articles and/or offers educational options to address unique issues related to common interest communities and regularly tracks proposed and enacted changes to the laws that affect common interest communities.
