On February 11th 2020 we hosted our first Business Breakfast: Ask The Expert Series for 2020. This session was sponsored and presented by Chamber members Daniel Bennett and Sarah Clarke of Regular Power Clarke Bennett -Lawyers.
The firm was founded by Robert Regular in 1988 and currently has four lawyers in the office: Robert Regular, Keri-Lynn Power, Sarah Clarke and Daniel Bennett.
They are a full service law firm located in Conception Bay South – real estate litigation, wills and estates, corporate, family law, criminal law, and personal injury. Basically they can help you with any legal matter!
The event began at 9 am at The Hangout 54 Conception Bay Highway. This was the first time owners Mike and Stephanie have hosted a business meeting in the space and the setup worked perfectly, providing the ability for the presenters and attendees to have an open discussion.
