Attorneys Working With Elected Representatives to Protect Homeowners' Rights

Sullan², Sandgrund, Perczak & Nuss P.C. has assumed a leading role to protect homeowners' rights. Our lawyers are often asked to testify before Colorado's legislature regarding proposed laws affecting Colorado homeowners and homeowner associations. The firm backs legislation opposing building industry efforts to limit the industry's liability.

In 2010, firm attorneys worked with Democrat and Republican legislators in writing and obtaining passage of House Bill 10-1394. This Bill was passed in response to a recent, unclear court decision, and to confirm a homeowner's ability to look to builders' and developers' liability insurance policies for payment against damage to their homes due to construction defects.
