We Fight City Hall! Baker & Baker serves local, national and multinational clients with land use and environmental concerns anywhere in British Columbia. Our clients rely on our extensive expertise in municipal and administrative law when they must deal with Provincial and local governments. Whether a client seeks to add a deck to his or her home or submit a complicated development proposal, we will work aggressively to secure the necessary approvals. The firm's record of successful municipal cases includes verdicts for personal injuries as well as numerous judgments arising under the Judicial Review Procedure Act. We have a hands-on knowledge of the technical requirements of the Environmental Management Act, the Fisheries Act, the Vancouver Charter, the Community Charter, the Local Government Act, the Mines Act, Farm Practices Protection (Right to Farm) Act, Agricultural Land Commission Act, the Land Title Act and related regulations. Working as a team we can successfully guide our clients through the maze of governmental requirements and approvals. We are able to promptly bring applications before the courts to compel the issuance of permits, set aside bylaws or defend enforcement actions. |
