Experience

Overview

Kelly represents community associations in Virginia.

As a community association attorney, Kelly works with community associations to:

• Amend associations’ Articles of Incorporation, Declaration and Bylaws 
•  Draft and amend Policy Resolutions, Charters and Architectural Guidelines
•  Collect and secure delinquent assessments by filing lawsuits and liens and by initiating foreclosure actions
•  Interpret restrictive covenants and suggest enforcement methods and options 
•  Draft and review management and service provider contracts 
•  Attend annual meetings, Board meetings and covenant violation hearings
•  Provide Board Member and Committee Member training

Kelly is successful in securing and collecting delinquent assessments for associations.  In one case, Kelly helped a property owner’s association collect over two hundred thousand dollars in delinquent assessments, legal fees and costs within ten months of the association retaining the firm to handle its collection accounts.  Kelly works closely with associations to modify their collection practices to increase their likelihood of collecting and securing delinquent assessments while attempting to reduce the costs to the association.
