Portland, MI asked in Real Estate Law for Michigan

Q: I'm in MI. I live in a small condo complex. A cluster mailbox was installed that violates federal regulations.

I am trying to find legal help in my area, I have sent out this problem to a couple of firms, no answer. Possibly I need to know what type of lawyer deals with this type of problem. The regulation being violated is the that the lowest floor of a mailbox for residential use must be no lower than 28 inches from the ground, the floor of mine is 16 inches and unusable.
