WCAT No. A1604204
Chris represented the developer of a large construction project in Abbotsford that was fined almost $60,000 in two separate penalty orders for alleged safety contraventions on site.

As a result, the second penalty was cancelled altogether and the fine reduced to less than $30,000.
