COSTS: 

Because in Canada costs are a real, legitimate, and recoverable litigation issue, we need to be masterful, technical and strategic when it comes to costs.  Whether it’s the strategic use of Rule 49 and other resources under the Rules of Civil Procedure (Ontario), understanding the nuances of cost consequences in different jurisdictions, being aware of the developing case law about costs recoverable with in-house counsel, or managing a (futile?) claim for costs at the LAT, there is much to know.

Chaired by: Kadey B.J. Schultz, Schultz Law Group LLP
