Cost-effective legal support, proactive counsel, and peace of mind. KSN's monthly retainer plans help HOA and condo association board members stretch and manage their community's budget.
"Our condo association looked at various firms and got lots of recommendations, but what sold us on KSN was their tremendous library of on-line resources and their very reasonably priced monthly retainer plan. That was six years ago and we've been very pleased with the quality and responsiveness of their services we've gotten from the firm."
A retainer is a valuable resource for condominium, homeowner (HOA), and townhome community associations aiming to ensure consistent and cost-effective access to legal expertise. This proactive approach can foster a stable and responsive legal partnership that assists board members in managing budgets predictably, enhancing the association's ability to navigate complex issues efficiently.
