This document discusses construction dispute resolution and avoidance in a booming construction market. It summarizes various dispute resolution methods including (1) adjudication which provides quick, binding interim decisions but may be less suited to complex cases; (2) court proceedings through the specialist Technology and Construction Court which are suited to complex cases but slow and expensive; (3) arbitration which is confidential but can be slow to start; and (4) alternative dispute resolution methods like mediation and dispute boards. It stresses that dispute avoidance through careful contract drafting and project management is the cheapest option.
Construction disputes arise from environmental and behavioural factors. There are many different causes of disputes in the construction industry. Disputes waste money, therefore drain profits and destroy the relationship and it takes energy away from projects.

https://www.brownejacobson.com/sectors-and-services/sectors/public-sector
Dispute Resolution Boards have proven highly effective (greater than 98% success rate) in resolving disputes in segments of the construction industry and preventing claims from going to arbitration or litigation. While more successful than all other non-binding alternatives, their use has been concentrated in specific project types and limited regions. Dispute and construction professionals will benefit from exploring the principles leading to success, and the practice will benefit from broader dissemination of this exciting method.

Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szet...Volition Properties
=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.

Construction Dispute Resolution and
Avoidance in a Boom Market
3. |
(1) Adjudication
constructiveblog.comConstruction Dispute Resolution and Avoidance in a Boom Market3
• Introduced by the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996
• Applies to construction contracts
• Key features :
• Right to refer disputes to adjudication at any time
• Parties to a construction contract cannot contract out
• Speed (28 days – 42 days)
• Cost (versus other tribunals)
• Binding on an interim basis
• Courts will usually enforce
• Private process (unless it goes to enforcement)
4. |
When to use adjudication
constructiveblog.comConstruction Dispute Resolution and Avoidance in a Boom Market4
• Adjudication is ideally suited to :
• Payment disputes (interim or final account disputes)
• Extension of claims
• Disruption claims
• But is (arguably!) less well suited to :
• Factually complicated disputes
• Disputes that that require substantial expert evidence
• Professional negligence claims
5. |
Common issues in adjudications
constructiveblog.comConstruction Dispute Resolution and Avoidance in a Boom Market5
• Ambush
• Jurisdictional and other challenges are commonplace
• No dispute
• Failure of appointment process
• Breach of natural justice
• Quality of the decision
• “The need to have the "right“ answer has been subordinated to the need to have an answer quickly.
The scheme was not enacted in order to provide definitive answers to complex questions.” Chadwick
LJ in Carillion Construction Ltd v Devenport Royal Dockyard Ltd (CA) (2005)
