Gregory Coxe is going to be distracted soon , hope to hit his pocket book ,

What Vial Fotheringham is referring to a "not a client of theirs", means that the person making the report may be the defendant or someone who is not an HOA Boardmember. 

I too have had problems with Vial Fotheringham, but in Oregon. 

1.  They refuse to substantiate their billings with line items list of what and how they billed the amounts.  The only proof of billing was a very vague document that was doctored up and lumped together.  VF is a professional firm that uses professional attorney billing statements.  What I got was a bogus report. 

2. They lie about talking to you.  They state that you have to have an attorney and they advise the HOA associations to lie too about talking to debtors who are requesting proof of debts.  According to every state's Attorney General's offices, every debtor has a right to access the debt information without a lawyer.  It's all a racket to ring up debt in the debtors name and of course the HOA Board. 

3. I provided a check to VF and sent tens of letters and tens of phone call messages asking for accounting on the allocation of the $2000 I sent them at their demand at the time of the debt.  6 months later after not receiving a response I got a copy of a garnishment judegement.  This is a crooked firm that will play these legal games until someone is intelligent enough to make good record by recording and logging it and providing the information to your local Attorney General's office for permanent record.  Eventually these add up. 

BIGGEST ADVICE:  Call your county court house regularly because these guys will state that you received proper notice when you weren't served.

About Vial Fotheringham

Finding your way through the complex maze of Homeowner Association law can be a tough task-unless you have the right guide. That's where Vial Fotheringham LLP comes in. We help real people and the organizations they represent resolve their HOA issues using the latest updates, vast industry experience, and just plain common sense. When you're looking for the smartest legal avenues, let us steer you in the right direction.

Practice Philosophy

At Vial Fotheringham LLP, we believe that knowledge is power-that's why every attorney on our staff maintains expertise in the practice of Homeowner Association Law. Our firm is the largest and most successful in the Northwest, with a solid foundation in construction defect litigation, HOA litigation, real estate law, estate planning, rewriting governing documents, documentreview, collections and assessments, business formation and operational issues, land use planning, business litigation and general dispute resolution.

No matter what your legal issue, we realize that nothing is more frustrating than investing precious time and energy on a project only to discover a legal roadblock later on. That's why we get involved in the earliest stages of planning rather than relying on damage control later on. You'll find it's by far the best way to keep your project on course from concept to execution.

Why Vial Fotheringham?

Vial Fotheringham is the only law firm in the area to offer such a wide array of services for homeowner associations. While we work cooperatively with developers and management companies, we don't represent them. This allows us to avoid any conflicts of interest in our HOA claims and provide associations with the best legal guidance possible. Our comprehensive approach is built around three important services:

1. Assisting Boards of Directors
   We help boards of directors avoid the pitfalls that are common to homeowner association leadership through education, publication and ongoing communication. Whether it's the management of a difficult meeting, preparation of an important resolution, interpretation of complex governing documents or crisis management, our experienced staff will provide your board with the best possible advice.



2. Fiscal Management
   While professional managers and accountants are extremely important in the day-to-day operation of a homeowners association, every association eventually finds that they need to enforce common assessments in order to maintain an even revenue stream. Our effective collection system not only improves cash flow, it helps prevent delinquencies in the future.
   
   Best of all, because of the high volume of collections pursued by our firm, your association isn't charged any legal fees until we've collected the delinquent funds.



3. Vigorous Pursuit of Association Rights
   When all else fails, sometimes an association has to assert its rights through the legal process. At Vial Fotheringham, we have an unprecedented record in protecting the legal rights of homeowner associations. Our firm is the only firm with two construction defect cases reported from the Oregon Court of Appeals to its credit. We've also successfully represented clients in numerous non-construction defect litigation matters.

We represent clients in Idaho, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. See our website at vf-law dot com or call our main office in Portland, at 503.684.4111.
