FB/SL Sun Report: Missouri City Residents of Meadowcreek Call for Removal of Russell Jones Lawfirm As HOA Board Legal Council

According to the Fort Bend Sun (July 15th, 2010) the ongoing conflict between homeowners in Missouri City living in the Meadowcreek neighborhood of over 700 homes has voted to remove the Holoway Jones Law Firm as legal representative after decades of involvement. As you remember Russell Jones, one of the owners, is a seated Sugar Land and former Missouri City city council member. In recent years it became known that over 270 homes out of this community had been targeted by the law firm with foreclosure notices which ran fees and fines on these members into the thousands of dollars.

Tom Blankenship who has been involved with a large group of homeowners for several years now to end the potentially abusive activity going on against members was quoted in the paper as saying, "...to take a $180 fee and within a period of three or four months turn it into a debt of $3,200 is completely irresponsible."

This and many other issues lead to a recent lawsuit that has now been settled which also involved the removal of several seated board members.
