Giving Homeowners the Tools to Fight Back

FixMyHOAViolation.com was built on a simple belief: every homeowner deserves access to the same legal knowledge and defense strategies that were once only available through expensive attorneys.

Michael Lawson

Lead HOA Compliance Analyst

Michael is an HOA homeowner turned advocate. After experiencing the frustration of dealing with unfair violations firsthand, he built FixMyHOAViolation.com to give every homeowner access to the same legal knowledge and defense strategies that were once only available through expensive attorneys.

His research has spanned HOA statutes across all 50 states, covering fine limits, due process requirements, selective enforcement protections, and homeowner rights under federal and state law.

Our Mission

To democratize access to HOA legal guidance. Homeowners should not have to pay $300-500/hour for a lawyer to understand their rights or defend against unfair violations. Our mission is to level the playing field with state-specific legal research, AI-powered analysis, and actionable defense strategies.

What We Do

State-Specific Legal Research

We've analyzed HOA statutes across all 50 states to identify your rights, fine limits, due process requirements, and appeal procedures. Every guide cites specific state laws so you know exactly what protections apply to your situation.

AI-Powered Violation Analysis

Upload your violation notice and our AI analyzes it against your CC&Rs and applicable state statutes, identifies procedural errors, flags selective enforcement, and helps you understand your options.

Defense Strategy Guides

Learn step-by-step strategies for contesting violations, requesting hearings, filing appeals, and leveraging selective enforcement defenses. Each guide includes real-world examples and actionable next steps.

Sample Letter Templates

Use our free templates for violation disputes, record requests, hearing appeals, and selective enforcement challenges. Every template cites specific state laws and incorporates proven defense arguments.

Our Research Process

Every guide on FixMyHOAViolation.com is built on rigorous legal research, not general advice. Here's how we work:

  1. Identify governing statutes. For each state, we identify the primary HOA law (e.g., Florida's Homeowners Association Act §720).
  2. Review the full text. We read the complete statute and associated regulations, not summaries.
  3. Extract homeowner protections. We identify every right, limitation, and procedural requirement that protects homeowners.
  4. Cross-reference decisions. We review court cases and attorney general opinions to understand how courts interpret these statutes.
  5. Verify with current law. Every guide is checked against the current statute version to ensure accuracy.
