    I came across a problem

    So I came across a problem on a project I am consulting for. Some things are are not as they seem.

    Major problem with project, Lawyer recomendation?

    Man that scenario your neighbor went through I wouldn’t wish upon my worst enemy. I think the more people involved in a project, the messier it can get.

    Major problem with project, Lawyer recomendation?

    This was our first as a prime contractor. the contract language here is very biased leaning towards the project owner. The contract states basically that they can charge LD’s how they see fit from the moment we are past the original completion date, and that we can‘t sue for any losses...

    Reaching out to see if anyone had any lawyer recommendations for western Canada (BC), one that may have experience with MOTI? I ran into big problems on an MOTI project. 600K job that was only supposed to be 6 weeks long has destroyed my 5M gross per year civil construction company and my...
