1Opinion of the Court

JOHNSON, Presiding Judge.

The Springs Condominium Association, Inc. (the “Association”) appeals the trial court’s refusal to grant it an award of attorney fees in this case. Because the case is governed by OCGA § 44-3-109 (b) (3), which mandates an award of attorney fees when an association is forced to file a statutory lien for condominium assessments and the association’s condominium’s documents provide for the payment of these fees, we reverse the trial court’s order and remand this case for the trial court tp determine the reasonableness of the Association’s attorney fees.
