Re: Personal Injury

Based on the information you have provided, it appears you may have a personal injury claim against the condominium association and perhaps other third parties (i.e., management company, maintenance contractor, etc.). If you wish to speak about this in more detail or would like assistance in retaining qualified legal counsel in your area/county, please call my office. I would be glad to help you find an experienced personal injury litigator in your county that may already have pursued claims against your condo association. I look forward to hearing from you. 305-424-0236.
