Welcome to HGT Law

On December 3, 2025, HGT Law filed a derivative lawsuit (“Lawsuit”) on behalf of the residents of the Metropolis, a multi-phase, mixed-use master planned community located on a full city block in downtown Los Angeles. The lawsuit is brought against various directors of the board of the Metropolis Master Association (“Master HOA”), as well as the management company of Master HOA, FirstService Residential California LLC (“FirstService,” and collectively “Defendants”). The Lawsuit asserts claims for breaches of fiduciary duty arising from the failure to collect assessments on developer-owned units within the Metropolis project in downtown Los Angeles, and from the conduct of unlawful elections that have disenfranchised the unit owners of the Metropolis project.
