Real Estate and Construction

The lawyer representing you in this field must, in addition to the Civil Code, have a good knowledge of a multitude of laws and regulations: expropriation, laws related to the field of construction, Building Codes, zoning, and other municipal laws, as well as with the by-laws of the Bureau des soumissions déposées du Québec. Occasionally, he may have to be a litigation specialist, but at all times he must keep in mind that the best solution may not always be through confrontation, especially if this involves finishing a construction project or carrying out a successful real estate transaction.
