I am a condo unit owner in a Florida Condo Association.  I have also been a Board of Directors member for two years.

Is it standard practice for Condo Associations to have a law office on retainer at all times? I feel this is an expense we may be able to lower in order to meet our budget obligations.

Thank you.
