Meet Alexander Holburn Beaudin + Lang LLP

Alexander Holburn Beaudin + Lang LLP is a Vancouver law firm formed on May 1, 1973 through the merger of two predecessor firms. It has grown to more than 100 lawyers working across over 25 practice areas, with offices in Vancouver, Toronto, and Kelowna.

The firm runs a dedicated Strata Property Group led by partner Lisa Mackie. The team handles purchase agreements, alteration and indemnity agreements, residential tenancy agreements, and disputes at the Civil Resolution Tribunal, the Residential Tenancy Branch, and under the Strata Property Act.

Lisa Mackie was called to the BC Bar in 2008 after earning her law degree at UBC in 2006. She is a regular instructor for the Professional Association of Managing Agents (PAMA) and the Condominium Home Owners Association of BC (CHOA), a guest lecturer in the Strata Property Law course at UBC Allard Law, and an editorial board member for the Continuing Legal Education Society of BC Strata Property Practice Manual.

For a multiplex strata, that depth matters when you set up the strata corporation, write the bylaws, and draft the disclosure documents at the point of sale. The team works on both the solicitor side (drafting and registration) and the dispute side (CRT, arbitration, court).

The same team that drafts your agreements also represents owners at the Civil Resolution Tribunal, the Residential Tenancy Branch, Strata Property Act arbitrations, and in Provincial and Supreme Court.

03

The people who write the manuals

Lisa Mackie sits on the editorial board of the CLEBC Strata Property Practice Manual and instructs for CHOA and PAMA. Other BC strata managers and lawyers learn the rules from her courses.
