There are many attorneys who serve on their co-op or condo board and are often asked by their fellow board members for their legal opinion on a matter. Since law school, we have been trained that we are attorneys 24 hours a day, seven days a week so we are often tempted to give the board our legal opinion. I served as president of my condominium board for four years and found myself in that situation many times. However, to avoid potential conflicts and legal liability, for legal opinions I would always turn to my condominium's attorney, Evan Gitter of Cohen, Warren, Meyer & Gitter for his advice.
