A SPECIAL PLACE
A Special Place is a raw, unflinching memoir of one man's descent into a living nightmare-betrayed by the very people and systems meant to protect him. After discovering a severe rodent infestation in his condo, the author did what any responsible homeowner would: he sought help. But what followed wasn't resolution-it was a calculated campaign of delay, negligence, and betrayal.
“A gut-wrenching, brutally honest account of legal betrayal and human cruelty. I couldn’t put it down—and I couldn’t stop thinking about it after I did.”
— Emily R., Legal Advocate”
“You think you know what negligence looks like—until you read this. The emotional weight, the psychological toll, the physical destruction… it’s harrowing. And it’s all true.”
— Rick Z., Therapist & Trauma Specialist
Horrifying.
Cruel.
Unbelievable.
With mounting evidence, documented emails, and medical records, Steiner turns to an attorney—only to be deceived once again. Unbeknownst to him, the lawyer he hires once worked for the very firm representing the HOA, a conflict of interest that would derail his fight for justice. What follows is a harrowing descent into emotional, physical, and financial ruin, orchestrated by the very people meant to help.
Told with brutal honesty and supported by verifiable documentation, this memoir is not just a personal story—it’s an indictment of legal malpractice, corporate indifference, and the emotional cost of being silenced. From shingles and Bell’s palsy to the loss of his home, Steiner lays bare the toll this ordeal took on his life, health, and sanity.
This book is a testament to survival, a warning to others, and a demand for accountability. If you’ve ever wondered how far corruption and neglect can go when no one is watching—or caring—A Special Place delivers the answer in haunting, unforgettable detail.
Undeniable Evidence of Criminal Negligence
This video footage reveals the hazardous conditions I was forced to endure for years—conditions knowingly ignored by Shelley Westall, Seabreeze Management, Rhona Kauffman, and the HOA Board. Despite clear health risks and their legal obligation to act, they chose to do nothing. Instead, they delayed, deflected, and protected each other while I lived in a biohazard. This is not just negligence—it is willful endangerment, a violation of health and safety laws, and a blatant abuse of duty.
Your support will help me raise the funds needed to hire a real attorney—one who isn’t corrupt or connected to the people who destroyed my life.
After years of being ignored, lied to, and left to suffer, it’s time to hold them accountable. Every dollar brings me one step closer to justice.
