Illinois law does not mandate that a condominium board hire a management company for any size condominium association.
A: Illinois law does not mandate that a condominium board hire a management company for any size condominium association. The hiring of other professionals such as accountants, engineers or attorneys is also not required. Of course, there is a persuasive case for a condominium board retaining professionals to obtain advice for the board to make sound business decisions.
Q: I live in a condominium association where one unit owner became violent and damaged the door to a unit to gain unauthorized access to the unit. The police were called, and that person is in jail, but I am curious if any changes to the condominium declaration can be made to protect one unit owner from another unit owner for violent conduct.
