Perspectives from the Practice: The Construction Act and the Changing Rules of Civil Procedure

The Rules of Civil Procedure in Ontario are potentially set to undergo a fairly substantive change in both form and culture. The up-front evidence model, elimination of discovery, and move away from motions-based litigation could have a substantial impact on the way that construction and liens-based litigation is carried out. Join us as we discuss, and answer questions from both fresh and veteran perspectives about how this may impact construction practice going forward, as well as give our thoughts on both the potential upsides, as well as challenges, with the proposed changes!

This Webinar is part of a series in which we offer free 1 hour seminars every Tuesday morning, from 8:30 – 9:30 am, on a variety of timely issues and topics. Our goal is to provide focused and practical information, and to conclude each session on the hour with additional time then set aside for questions and discussion for those that want to stay behind. We hope to see you there!
