A little friendly competition goes a long way!

Our FH&P associates traded the office for the bowling lanes at BNA for an evening of bowling, food, drinks and plenty of laughs.

It was great to get everyone together outside the office, enjoy some friendly competition and spend time connecting beyond the day-to-day. There may have been a few competitive streaks come out, too!

A big thanks to Kevin Robertson, David Horvath, Jen Schreurs, Rene Watson, Trinity Schredl, Abu Khurana, Wendy Cheung, Jesse Langelier and Katherine Veintimilla for joining in the fun.

Good people, good laughs and a great reminder that building a strong team happens outside the office, too.

Canadians are pathologically polite, and the legal system had to adapt. Provincial Apology Acts ensure that when you reflexively say "sorry" after someone else bumps into you, you haven't accidentally legally confessed to negligence. It's the law protecting our national reflex.

Buying a home in the Okanagan? Before you commit to the biggest purchase of your life, check that you can get insurance for it.

Some insurers are now restricting coverage by postal code in higher-risk wildfire areas, including spots like Westside Road. Coverage you assumed would be there may not be.

Make insurance part of your due diligence before you buy. Learn more about wildfire insurance and what Okanagan homeowners should know here: https://bit.ly/3WsrVhR

Though we’ll admit, “prima facie” does sound like it should come with a wand.

Some people have a gift for bringing people together — and Pamela Pearson is definitely one of them.

Pamela is one of FH&P’s favourite connectors and a wonderful part of our Speaker Series community. Through her Ladies Happy Hour, she brings together an incredible group of women in business who network, share ideas, support one another, do deals together and, most importantly, make things happen.

We are always happy to show up and support Pamela and this amazing community of women.

It was especially great to see so many incredible women on the patio at Joey’s today. The sunshine was warm, the company was even warmer — and somehow, the ch*****ne tasted just a little bit better.

Here’s to women who connect, collaborate and create change — and to the women who make our community stronger by bringing us together.

Controlling behaviour in a relationship can now be grounds to sue in Canada.

In May 2026, the Supreme Court of Canada created a new legal claim for intimate partner violence. It isn't about one bad moment. It's about a pattern over time, like controlling money, cutting someone off from others, or manipulating them, until they lose control of their own life.

Find out what the ruling means, who it applies to, and how it connects to family law in BC.

You pay for insurance so you're covered when something goes wrong. So when a claim gets denied, it can feel like the ground shifted.

If it happens to you, a few first steps can make a real difference:

✔️ Ask for the denial in writing, including the specific policy wording your insurer is relying on
✔️ Keep copies of everything: your policy, your application, and all bills and receipts
✔️ Don't sign a release or accept a partial payment before getting legal advice

Our Insurance Law Team reviews policies and denials for travel, medical and extended health, life, property, disability, and business claims, and has decades of experience negotiating with insurance adjusters. If a matter can't be resolved, we're prepared to take it further on your behalf.

The policy you paid for should be there when you need it. Let's talk: https://bit.ly/4dkIfqJ

Turns out "I didn't know!" isn't the free pass we hoped it would be.

Courts work on the assumption that everyone knows the law, whether you've read it or not. So the next time you're tempted to plead ignorance, maybe just look it up first.
