SUMMARY:Adjudication & Arbitration Differences
DESCRIPTION:Join Dan Leduc of Soloway Wright LLP as he breaks down the ultimate Adjudication vs. Arbitration showdown in 2026. Discover why the new “90-day window” and “private adjudicator” rules mean you may never need a full arbitration again—and how to sequence these tools to maximize your cash flow and minimize project risk.\n\nWhile Adjudication under the Construction Act is now a staple of Ontario’s legal landscape\, the rules of the game have evolved. Recent legislative updates mean that choosing a path forward is no longer a simple box-ticking exercise. Today’s construction parties must look beyond procedural deadlines and instead focus on how adjudication can be strategically woven into a broader recovery plan that includes lien claims and trust remedies.\n\n\n\n\nAdjudication & Arbitration Differences May 26\, 2026\nAdjudication & Arbitration Differences May 26\, 2026\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    Company Name\n        *\n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n\n    Email\n        *\n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n\n    Phone\n        *\n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n\n    Attendee\n        \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n\n    Attendee\n        \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n\n    Attendee\n        \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n\n    Attendee\n        \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n\n	Captcha\n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\n\n	\nSubmit\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n			\n			\n				If you are human\, leave this field blank.			\n			\n		\n		\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
