Hello all, I am not really sure where to start with this.....my driver was in his truck with trailer making a delivery of household goods to an apartment building in central Calgary. When he was leaving the apartment building he took down the power lines and phone lines with his rig. The shipper (customer) told him where to park the vehicle, so my driver did as he was told. The apartment building parking lot is private property. What is my legal obligation for this? Is there any free phone service where I could just ask them this simple question?
Thank you too all those with serious and adult answers!

Caveat: I am not licensed as either a barrister or solicitor in Canada.

1) You are apparently a business owner. Turn the question over to your insurance company and let them deal with the question of liability. That is what you pay them for.

2) You are apparently a business owner: If someone came into your store, and said "I would like for free, what would you think? I somehow doubt that you would say "sure, take $150 or $200 worth for free".
When you ask an attorney, barrister, solicitor, advocate, etc.. for free advice, that is the same thing. The only thing that a barrister or solicitor has to sell is his/her time and professional expertise. To answer your question, they need to investigate the facts and then give you an answer that can be relied on. To do otherwise is professional negligence.

I urge you to contact your local solicitor or barrister, but don't expect free advice. Free advice is often worth exactly what you pay for it.
