Lenehan Musgrave is proud to have hosted our first annual “soothe the winter blues” networking event on February 23rd, which saw a nice cross section of local business people attend.

Guests enjoyed themselves over delicious appetizers, a few cheers, and good conversation with other business people in the community eager to create reciprocating goodwill and support each other’s growth.

We appreciate those who took time out of their busy lives to attend. We also want to give a special thanks to our caterer, Kitchen Door Catering, who added an air of elegance to the evening with their exceptional hospitality.

Now more than ever it’s important for us to put down our smartphones and do business the old fashioned way - face to face communication. Lenehan Musgrave is pleased to have provided such an opportunity and we look forward to providing similar opportunities in the years to come. We have already begun planning next year’s networking event, which will take place on Thursday, February 21st. So save the date!

What constitutes common law?

A common law relationship is simply the act of living together in a marriage-like relationship without actually being legally married. It does not require any kind of legal process to create a common law union. The definition of common law partnership also differs depending on the laws applied. For example, the Canada Pension Plan states that two people are in a common law relationship after a year of cohabitation. The Parenting and Support Act, on the other hand, requires two years of cohabitation before a relationship can be described as common law.
