Developer Lesson 6: The Dream Team – Getting Your Lawyer and Construction Team to Work Together

December 9, 2021

When your lawyer and your construction team work together, things work out better for everyone. No one knows everything – but when legal experts and construction experts work together, your project will encounter fewer bumps in the road.

Consider this example: Parking underground is a must in most developments. How many levels and how deep matters. The more communication on parking, early on, the more likely the remediation will account for potential vapour or groundwater issues impacting underground parking. And regulators care about this.
