PARK CITY, Utah, Oct. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The HOA law firm of Morris Sperry will hold a free seminar on October 28, 2014 at the Red Rock Brewery in Park City, Utah. The seminar will be focused on the contracts between Homeowners' Associations and the Management Companies/Individuals that manage the HOA. In most cases, the existing management contract between a Management Company and an HOA are legally flawed and do not clearly identify the scope of services to be provided. There are several simple adjustments that need to be made to the Management Contract/Agreement that will help both parties avoid legal issues. Also, many contracts are drafted so one-sided that one party or the other is unnecessarily exposed to liability or costs. The legal team at Morris Sperry has seen many disputes between managers and associations that could have easily been avoided if the management contract was written properly. Morris Sperry will provide a free template management contract for those who attend the seminar. "We encourage everyone to attend this important Seminar," says John Morris of Morris Sperry. Management companies, individuals that manage HOA's, HOA Board Members, HOA members (those who own a property in an HOA), and HOA Officers are all welcome to attend.

"In February 2014, a Murray Utah HOA discovered that their manager had stolen over $100,000. One of the first things the police asked for was a copy of the contract defining the obligations, rights, and salary of the manager," said Morris.
"The relationship between condo and HOA boards and their managers is defined by the management contract. Despite the primary importance of this key document, many management contracts are flawed, defective, or simply do not address important issues. We will discuss what should be included in a management contract and what issues should be affirmatively discussed between the manager and the association before signing a management contract. We will also give out a form contract that is fair to both sides for anyone to use going forward," explained Robert Rosing, an HOA attorney with Morris Sperry.
"John Morris helped me through a very difficult HOA experience and in the end, we won! The Association later wanted to seek damages from the Manager of the Association but the HOA did not have a good management contract that protected the Board or the owners in the Association," said Park City resident Nate Di Palma.
