Navigating Ontario Construction Settlements: Partial Settlements, Disclosure Obligations, and Recent Developments in Ontario Case Law

In Ontario, settling a construction dispute requires navigating agreed upon terms and the strict provisions of the Construction Act. The process is rarely a simple two-party handshake, as obligations are owed to others on the project and all are bound by statutory provisions and trust obligations. Join us to discuss settlements, partial settlement, disclosure obligations, recent decisions of Ontario Courts, and everything in between.

To Lien or Not to Lien: Navigating Improvements and What Qualifies as Lienable Work

In Ontario, services and materials are considered lienable if same are supplied to an “improvement”. This might include any alteration, addition, capital repair, demolition, or construction on the land or premises. This broad scope encompasses on-site and off-site services, building materials, and equipment rentals, provided they are necessary for the project’s completion and benefiting all construction parties. However, sometimes works performed by a contractor, subcontractor or supplier may not qualify under the Construction Act, or adjacent case law, as being “lienable” work. In this Webinar, lawyers from Kennaley Construction Law will address this issue and explore the nuances.
