At The Law Office of Jed A. Stabler, P.A., we help both homeowners and community associations navigate the often-complicated world of Florida HOA and condominium law. Whether you're a resident dealing with a dispute or a board member seeking compliance support, our firm offers practical, timely legal guidance grounded in years of Florida-specific experience.
Florida has one of the highest numbers of HOAs and condo associations in the country, and with that comes a unique set of legal rules. From governing documents and elections to assessments, fines, and dispute resolution, these issues require more than general legal knowledge; they require a clear understanding of Florida’s condo and HOA statutes.
Without experienced legal guidance, homeowners may feel overwhelmed, and associations risk making decisions that violate statutes or expose them to liability. That’s where we come in.

Client
My mom passed away this past April and Jed Stabler was her attorney. We turned to him for guidance and received a professional and personal experience issues of probating the will and directing us on what to do with all other issues. He was very helpful and there when we needed any questions answered.
Client
I have worked with Jed on a couple of occasions and I could not have asked for a better estate attorney. I would highly recommend Jed to anyone in need of a great lawyer.
Client
Attorney Jed Stabler went into meticulous attention and details in explaining to me all the angles about Estate planning and their relevance to the laws of Florida. It is very reassuring and comforting to have the peace of mind that Attorney Stabler could provide to his clients. Kudos!
Client
Jed is a great attorney and a great person to work with. He helped my brother and I through some tough times as neither of us had been through this process before. At the end of the day everything he stated up front when taking the case was accomplished as he had promised. I would recommend Jed to anyone who is going through the probate process.

Florida law gives homeowners several rights, including access to association records, participation in meetings, and the ability to challenge unlawful board actions. However, these rights can be limited by valid governing documents, so it’s important to review both state law and your community’s rules.
Associations must follow a legal process before imposing fines, including giving notice and offering a hearing before an impartial committee. If those steps aren’t followed, the fine may be invalid.
Start by reviewing your governing documents. If the issue can’t be resolved informally, you may need to file a formal complaint or seek legal counsel. Some disputes require mediation under Florida law before going to court.
It depends on your governing documents and the nature of the change. Some rules or budget changes can be made by the board alone, while others require owner approval. An attorney can clarify which applies in your situation.
An experienced attorney can help interpret governing documents, protect your rights, avoid costly missteps, and ensure that all actions, whether by a homeowner or board, are legally sound. We help resolve issues quickly and avoid unnecessary escalation.
