Erin Best and Justin Hewitt discuss the new legal landscape for municipalities at upcoming conference
St. John’s lawyers Erin Best and Justin Hewitt will be presenting a session at the Municipalities Newfoundland and Labrador 2021 annual conference, trade show and annual general meeting, November 4. Erin and Justin both have experience assisting various municipalities and companies in a number of different legal areas, and will answer one of the most important questions facing municipalities today: what makes a policy decision?
