Peter Johnson is a partner and a member of our solicitor’s group.

He was called to the BC Bar in 1990 and brings 4 years experience as an in house assistant city solicitor to our practice. This background enables him to understand and appreciate the concerns of both local government staff and elected officials in responding to requests for legal advice. His knowledge of claims management and insurance litigation provides him with the tools to advise our local government clients on liability issues and to draft defensive contracts. In addition to contract advice and drafting, his in house experience also includes legal advice on the interpretation of all types of provincial and federal legislation affecting local governments, as well as local government bylaws; developing and drafting policies and bylaws; requests for access to records and appearing at Commissioner’s hearings under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act; building code administration, inspection and enforcement matters; and issues concerning elected officials.
