Standing Up to Improper Fines and Misconduct

At Johnson & Associates, we understand the specific legal landscape of Nevada HOAs and are prepared to stand up for homeowners when their association crosses the line. We provide strategic representation for a wide range of conflicts:

  • Improper Fines and Penalties: We challenge HOAs that levy arbitrary, excessive, or poorly documented fines, ensuring the association adheres to its own governing documents (CC&Rs) and state law.

  • Maintenance and Repair Disputes: We advocate for homeowners when the HOA fails to maintain common areas, leading to property damage (such as water damage from roof or common element failures) or structural issues.

  • Election Misconduct and Governance Issues: We handle complex legal challenges related to rigged elections, unauthorized spending, and failures of the board members to uphold their fiduciary duties. Rigged elections and fraud are serious concerns that undermine community trust, and our firm is equipped to handle these high-stakes litigation matters.

Every HOA dispute attorney on our team meticulously reviews governing documents, state statutes (NRS Chapter 116), and board meeting minutes to build a strong, defensible case on your behalf.

Nevada Homeowner Association (HOA) Disputes — Johnson & Associates Advocates
for Homeowners

In Southern Nevada, living in a community governed by a Homeowner Association (HOA) has become the norm. In fact, 95% of new homes built in the Las Vegas Valley are part of common-interest communities managed by HOAs. While these associations are intended to preserve property values and maintain community standards, they often create disputes that can significantly impact homeowners’ rights and finances.

At Johnson & Associates, we represent Nevada homeowners in navigating and resolving disputes with their HOAs. From improper fines to election misconduct, our firm stands up for homeowners when their association crosses the line.

Common HOA Disputes We Handle:

Water Leaks and Repair Responsibility:

Determining whether the HOA or the homeowner is responsible for water intrusion and related damage can be a complex legal issue. We advocate for homeowners when associations fail to fulfill their maintenance obligations under Nevada law and the community’s governing documents.

Violation Notices and Hearings:

Receiving a violation notice for alleged rule infractions can be stressful. We ensure that homeowners are given proper notice, a fair hearing, and that the HOA complies with the procedural requirements set forth in NRS 116.

Disputes Over Fines and Penalties:

HOAs often impose fines for rule violations, sometimes without following the proper procedures. We challenge improper or excessive fines and ensure that the association complies with Nevada’s statutory limits and due process protections.

Parking Disputes and Common Area Access:

Conflicts over guest parking, assigned spaces, or restricted access to common areas are frequent sources of tension. We help homeowners resolve these disputes when HOAs enforce rules unfairly or inconsistently.

Board Elections and Governance Compliance:

HOA Board elections must comply with strict procedures to ensure fairness and transparency. We assist homeowners in challenging improper election practices and demand compliance with election rules under NRS 116 and the community’s governing documents.

Selective Enforcement and Abuse of Power:

When associations enforce rules against some homeowners but ignore others, it creates legal exposure for the HOA and frustration for those being targeted. We advocate for homeowners facing arbitrary or retaliatory enforcement actions.

Understanding HOA Law in Nevada – NRS Chapter 116

Homeowner Associations in Nevada are governed by Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) Chapter 116, known as the Uniform Common-Interest Ownership Act. NRS 116 sets forth the legal framework for the formation, management, and operation of HOAs in Nevada. It governs issues such as:

  • The scope of an HOA’s maintenance responsibilities.
  • Procedures for adopting and enforcing community rules.
  • Requirements for conducting fair elections and board meetings.
  • Limits on fines and penalties imposed on homeowners.
  • Homeowner rights to inspect association records.

Despite these statutory protections, HOAs sometimes fail to comply with NRS 116, either through misunderstanding their obligations or through deliberate overreach. When that happens, homeowners need experienced legal counsel to hold associations accountable.
