DO NOT RETAIN. This attorney protects the corrupt status quo, not the community…read more As a long-term homeowner and former board member in an HOA community that retained Mr. Wolf, I have observed his counsel first-hand. His services have consistently enabled dysfunction, wasted funds, and violated homeowner rights. He is not a neutral arbiter; he is a key player in maintaining a toxic status quo. Documented Evidence of Failure: A History of Silencing Homeowners: Mr. Wolf has a proven track record of helping boards intimidate and silence homeowners. During a previous board's tenure, he participated in tactics that included using the threat of police presence and procedural intimidation to stifle legitimate questions and concerns during open meetings. His goal was to suppress dissent, not facilitate transparent governance. Sham Investigations That Protect Abusers: When a board member sent a threatening email to a homeowner stating, "I'm asking you first and last time do not interfere... do not ask the lawyers do not bother the office," Mr. Wolf's "investigation" concluded this was merely "inartful" and not a threat. Crucially, he deliberately omitted the board member's documented history of harassing other homeowners and work crews. His investigation was designed to whitewash misconduct, not uncover the truth. Gross Fiscal Irresponsibility: Mr. Wolf advised the board to spend association funds on this so-called investigation, only to later claim the board was "powerless to act" on its findings--a fact he could have established without a costly process. He knowingly orchestrated a legal charade that consumed homeowner money solely to create a paper trail that insulated the board from liability. Inventing Authority to Intimidate Homeowners: In his official response, Mr. Wolf asserted that "there are circumstances under which a Board can constrain unit owner communications." However, a review of our community's governing documents reveals no such provision granting the board this power. He provided no citation because none exists. This was a baseless, veiled threat intended to intimidate a homeowner from exercising their rights, demonstrating a willingness to invent legal authority to suit his clients' needs. Conclusion: Mr. Wolf's primary function is not to uphold the law or the governing documents, but to protect boards and management from the consequences of their own negligence and misconduct. He is an expert in providing "legal" cover for violations of homeowner rights, waste of funds, and the intimidation of residents. He is a profound liability to any community that seeks transparent, lawful, and responsible governance. Retaining him will ensure that corruption is protected, and homeowner voices are silenced. Look elsewhere if you value accountability and the rule of law.

In each legal documents I received, they'll point out the outstanding statements I have to be aware of or make response. Initially I spot several problems during home inspections, they helped me writing legal documents over all negotiations with seller side in very clear and powerful style and managed to protect my rights. Later on I was told the condo building was undergoing some lawsuits which might affect future price, they stood in my place and helped me analyze the unexpected situation so I'm able to make proper decision. They'll not charge full price if the deal is not successfully closed, even due to uncontrollable causes from third party. I think I would be fully at a loss and become frustrated without their help, and I would thanks again for their accompany during the whole home purchasing process.

Susan Zeller is a stellar lawyer. She is someone you want on your side. Not only is she a wealth of…read moreknowledge and professionalism but working with her feels like you're working with family. She will make herself readily available to help you anyway she can. She will listen to your needs and advocate for you. Seven months ago, my wife and I were closing on a home and a week later she was to be induced with twins. (The girls are doing great btw). The sellers' lawyer was very inexperienced and unprofessional, the sellers were shady about disclosing information, and the sellers' realtor was flaky and unprofessional; the situation was looking grim. I'm not sure what we would've done without Susan Zeller. She put in extra hours, answered our concerning phone calls, and went to bat for us. The sellers' side put us through a terribly messy closing. Susan gave us the best legal guidance and made us feel more comfortable.

It was my first home purchase and I was really happy with Barry's responsiveness and his ability to explain things. Also, I thought it was really nice that he didn't even charge for the work he did on the first house and the fee he told me when I first spoke with him was exactly what we paid. With the first houses back and forth and the second home having an 80 page rider, his job couldn't have been that easy. He was always on top of all of the deadlines and made sure I knew what was going on. I also was able to meet his partner Lester Ottenheimer who was also very helpful and knowledgeable. I will have no problem going to Barry and Lester if the need arises in the future and highly recommend this firm to anyone looking for a good lawyer.
