Best Answer

The answer depends on the subject of the lawsuit.

It also depends on whether the suit's plaintiff is the association or an owner.


Any time an owner or an association is in a lawsuit -- or contemplating one -- best practices dictate that an attorney be involved.


The attorney can assemble all the evidence, prepare the case and file the documents with the court necessary to bring -- or defend -- a suit.
