When an owner delays paying a contractor, that delay can affect subcontractors, suppliers, workers, and the progress of the project itself.

British Columbia’s new Construction Prompt Payment Act has been passed but is not yet in force.

In our latest article we discuss what the new system will look like, including clear deadlines for payment, what happens when payment is disputed, a faster way to resolve disputes, changes to builders’ lien rules and more.

Some of our McQuarrie lawyers recently enjoyed a wonderful summer networking event, bringing young professionals together for an evening of connection and conversation. Set against the stunning Chapter Estates Winery, the event offered a relaxed opportunity to step away from the day-to-day and strengthen relationships.

A sincere thank you to the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce , Langley Next Gen Business Network and Company of Young Professionals & Entrepreneurs for making the evening such a success. Events like this are a great reminder of the value of connection, collaboration, and taking time to enjoy the season together.
