Homeowner's Association Super Star Legal Counsel

Ms. Ciceron was instrumental in successfully restating governing documents for several homeowners associations. She has also been a tremendous rescource for boards of directors needing advice with regards to the Davis-Stirling Act and how it relates to specific homeowners associations. Her knowledg...e in this very specialized area of the law is invaluable. Ms. Ciceron is very responsive and prompt. She is readily available for her clients. Her friendly demeanor is helpful in dealing with all sorts of personalities.

Only good things to say

As an HOA Manager, I have worked with a number of attorneys in the HOA industry. My experiences with Christina Ciceron have been excellent. I have worked with her for years and most recently she helped my and one of my associations navigate the Construction Defect repair process. This process tends t...o put so many people on edge with the destructive nature, yet Christina helped us with the homeowners, the vendors, the Board... She made the experience for everyone involved much easier.

Review of Christina A Ciceron

Christina Ciceron is an extremely qualified Attorney with excellent knowledge of HOA legal issues, Construction Defect and Davis Sterling Act. Ms. Ciceron effectively navigated a host of legal issues for the Home Owners Association of which I serve as Board President- more specifically, our SB800 Co...nstruction Defect Claim. She is always very responsive and diligently works for the Board (we have also retained Ms Ciceron as Legal Counsel for our HOA). Christina consistently advocates for her clients and always looks out for their best interest. I would not hesitate to recommend Ms Ciceron.

Honest and Professional Attorney

I have known Christina Ciceron for the past several years and have had the opportunity of working with her on a variety of homeowner association issues. Her professionalism and vast knowledge of the homeowner association industry has been valuable to the Board of Directors and management staff that ...she has been involved with. From complicated construction defect cases to simple violation hearings and collection matters, Ms. Ciceron’s knowledge and expertise has been proven over and over again. She is attentive to details, thorough and informative, and her quick responses (both verbal and written) have saved the associations from long litigation matters, with resolutions that have served her clients well. She has a calm patient demeanor that moves a stressful situation into a calm one. Correspondence generated from her office addresses the problem, quotes current laws and association governing document sections (as needed), providing the reader with the necessary information, whether it be the Board of Directors or individual homeowner. If you are looking for an attorney to serve as your General Legal Counsel, I would highly recommend Christina Ciceron. [email protected]

Exceptional Lawyer - Highly Recommended

Christina Ciceron has been legal counsel for several of my Homeowners Association (HOA) accounts. Mrs. Ciceron has handled debt collection matters, ADR, general consultation, Governing Document revisions, elections as well as assisted with litigation on the HOA accounts I manage. As a manager it is c...rucial for me to be able to obtain prompt and thorough responses. Mrs. Ciceron never fails to meet these needs. In addition, she takes the time to educate and follow through. I highly recommend Christina Ciceron for legal services.
