Beware, beware, beware of these fraudsters. They would contact you about bogus debt, which you really do not owe. They would threaten you of putting a lien on your home and foreclosure. Do not send them a dime. Instead, call the police. If Oliveri is operating his frauds in your community, it is always with the conspirator "property manager" and at least one corrupt "board member". In such case, send written demand to both "property manager" and "board" for "electronic unredacted copies of: (1) all the agreements between or among the HOA, any management company, any law firm, and any member of the foregoing; (2) all communications, documents, invoices, detailed billing statements, checks, other payment devices, and receipts regarding every dollar that went directly or indirectly to Oliveri & Associates LLC or any related person; (3) ledger of our unit since beginning of ownership" At the bottom of the written request, cc the police station and police headquarters of your county attn: white collar, corruption, and economic crimes units. This is enough to scare the hell out of the fraudsters' asses.
If you are late on the HOA assessment, write a check in that amount (do not include any money for purported "attorney's fees, you don't owe that BS), and write on the check "apply ONLY to general assessment of fiscal year 2023 [or put other proper year you believe you are late on]". Hand the check to the purported "Treasurer" or "board" in the presence of a witness.. Hand it and say "it is paid" and walk away; do not debate. Do not talk to Oliveri & Associates, other than to send them an email saying "Hey FRAUDSTERS, we don't owe you anything. Do not contact us again" and cc the email to the police.
If the so called "assessment" is itself fraudulent (almost always true if you are reading this) do not mingle that issue with Oliveri's. Instead, send requests for documents (similar to the above) regarding the contracts you suspect are corrupt. When there is corruption of that nature, it is usually spread over multiple contracts and multiple vendors.
Walk to the police station and complain and make sure you get a complaint # (usually called "CC#"). Some officers are lazy and would try to dissuade you from complaining and tell you to go complain elsewhere, or trick you by telling you "These are civil matters". Tell them "I am not leaving unless I get a complaint#, otherwise I'll call the Internal Affairs and report misconduct". Do not waste your time complaining to the so called "Attorney Grievance Commission"; they are more corrupt than Oliveri. If Oliveri sues you, do not ignore it. Do the above, and additionally go to court and tell the judge about the fraud, and call it by its name: "fraud". Some judges are corrupt; welcome to Maryland! If you smell a rat, report the crooked judge to the police. Don't let a crooked judge fool you with their "robe".
Certainly, the details of every situation are different, but the theme is always the same. Therefore, modify the above accordingly. Do not be a compliant victim, and do not let these fraudsters steal your money and your home. All crime is suppressed when people in the community talk to each other. Reach out to other victims of Oliveri and talk to them. You will be surprised that their story is mirror image of yours. Do not waste your money on hiring lawyers. They are waste of money and they may do you more harm than good. Some of them do not know of the pattern of fraud, and even those who know will not even reveal it to you, either because they are in this fraud, or have similar fraud, or simply want your money and they do not want to embarrass themselves in the lawyer-community by exposing fraudsters-lawyers. Moreover, some find it more profitable when a thief like Oliveri continues his harm upon the society, because that provides them continuously with new clients. A good lawyer will tell you "this is criminal" and counsel you to complain to the police, or offer to do it on your behalf, in addition to defending you in court if Oliveri sues you. If you find such lawyer, hire him/her, but in 99%, you would not be able to afford such a lawyer anyway. read more
