OUR VISION

Noland Law was born out of a desire to create a new approach in servicing each community association's unique circumstances and needs.  We offer plain-spoken, concise guidance and creative solutions to provide the simplest path to results.  Our client relationships are founded on an open dialog, focused attention and responsive communication.  Your success is our success.  Our team draws on its years of experience to proactively assist association boards of directors and management personnel in avoiding legal risk and achieving corporate goals through effective business decisions.
 

We are part of your community, and as such have a deeper understanding of the local laws, practices and quirks that come with living in the San Francisco Bay Area.  We also belong to a large network of regional partner businesses and colleagues and use those connections to keep up to date on any information that would benefit and guide our work together.  On a state level, we work with leading industry organizations in an effort to advocate, educate and shape legislature that affects communities across California.  Through our varied efforts and community involvement we are able to cultivate a broader perspective that informs every facet of service here at Noland Law.
