Order a Certified English Translation of the Condominium Law
By Patricia Ann Talley, Editor
Your condominium property is probably your most valuable investment. Isn’t it important to protect it? This book publication project started with me calling my lawyer regarding a dispute at my annual Condominium Association Meeting. An owner objected to some of the actions taken by the Administration Committee stating that they did not comply with the state law.
I called attorney Agustin Galindo to inquire as to where I could find a copy of the applicable state law and found out that the condo laws for every state are available to the public online – but in Spanish of course.
My Spanish is pretty good, but not good enough to interpret a legal document, and I do not recommend depending on “Google Translator” for something this important. Agustin and his wife Carolina informed me that they had an official English translation of the Condominium Law for the State of Guerrero.
Agustin Galindo is a Mexican Attorney-at-Law with a Master’s in International and Comparative Law from Southern Methodist University in Texas, USA. He holds a tax degree from ITAM in Mexico City. Ana Carolina Delgadillo is a Mexican Certified Translator and Interpreter.
The formation, administration, and activities of the Condominium Association must comply with the Condominium Laws of the state. Below are the contents of this important translation.
