Who Is The Best HOA Lawyer For You?

Specialized Attorneys Representing South Carolina Homeowners

There are many lawyers who claim to know South Carolina HOA law, but very few are dedicated to representing homeowners. A lawyer who only dabbles in HOA law will lack the in-depth knowledge required to go up against HOAs. Our experienced and effective attorneys have protected countless homeowners from HOAs in South Carolina. But whether you choose us or not, here are 6 things to look for when choosing an attorney to help you with your HOA dispute. 

Find Out How Much Your Case is Worth

    We don’t know whether we can represent you yet. We may already represent another party whose interests are adverse to yours. (For example, if you have a dispute with your neighbor, we may already represent your neighbor.) Because we don’t know if we can represent you, you should not disclose any confidential information to us. By submitting information to us, you agree that you will not disclose any confidential information to us and that we have no duty to keep the information that you disclose to us confidential.

    + Pick an Attorney Who Specializes in South Carolina HOA Law

    HOA law is complex, and hiring a generalist attorney who practices across multiple fields won’t give you the specialized expertise you need. Your HOA’s lawyer focuses solely on HOA law, and you need an attorney to match that expertise.  

    We fight HOAs for a living. Representing homeowners is our primary focus. So we’ve made it our business to know the Horizontal Property Act and the South Carolina Homeowners Association Act. We know the HOA’s playbook. And, more importantly, we’ll use that knowledge to fight on your behalf. With us, you’re not paying someone to learn the law as they go—we already know it.  

    01
    + Pick an Attorney with a Proven Track Record of Success

    Results matter. You want an attorney who has successfully resolved HOA disputes time and time again, not someone who just talks a big game. Ask about their past cases and how many homeowners they’ve helped win against their HOAs. 

    We’ve successfully represented countless homeowners against powerful HOAs. Our history speaks for itself—real victories, real numbers, real results. With us, you can rest assured that you're getting experienced representation with a strong record of fighting for homeowners’ rights. 

    02
    + Pick An Attorney Who Has a Plan

    You hire an attorney to resolve your dispute assuming they know what to do. But lots of lawyers go into a case without a plan in place. Because they have no plan, they’re reactive instead of proactive. For clients, it always feels like they’re one step behind the opposition. You wouldn’t let your doctor perform surgery on you without a plan. Why would you let your attorney start your case without one? 

    We practice law with purpose. From day one, we develop a comprehensive and systematic approach to solving our clients’ problems. We’re in control before we even start a case. With a plan in place we can anticipate your HOA’s tactics, and ensure that they always feel one step behind. That means you’re always one step ahead. 

    03
    + Pick an Attorney with Litigation and Negotiation Experience

    Some attorneys excel at negotiating settlements, while others thrive in the courtroom. In HOA disputes, you need someone who can do both, depending on what the situation calls for. 

    Our team has extensive experience negotiating favorable terms and, when necessary, aggressively litigating to protect your homeowner rights. Whether it’s through a settlement or a trial, we have handled high-stakes and high-pressure cases at all stages, from pre-litigation, all the way through appeal. Take advantage of our experience. Tell us about your dispute and we’ll help you find the right path forward. 

    04
    + Pick an Attorney Who Offers Transparent Fees

    The last thing you need in an HOA dispute is financial uncertainty. Some attorneys are vague about fees, leaving clients with unexpected bills and additional stress. 

    We pride ourselves on transparency. Our fee structure is clear from the start, with no hidden costs or surprise expenses. You'll know exactly what you're paying for, and every dollar will be accounted for, so you can focus on resolving your dispute, not worrying about legal fees.  

    05
    + Pick an Attorney Who Truly Cares About You

    Law is a service industry. A lot of lawyers overlook that. They prioritize billable hours over personal relationships. It stands to reason that a lawyer that doesn’t care about the client won’t care about the client’s case either. Don’t pick a lawyer that doesn’t care about you personally. It makes an already stressful process aggravating. You deserve better. Demand it. 

    We take a personal interest in our clients as people. We care about our clients as much as their cases. With that comes honesty. We’re willing to tell our clients when it just doesn’t make sense to hire us. We put our clients’ interests before our bottom line. Your case is as important to us as it is to you.
