This paper explores three approaches for attacking arbitration in court: (1) attacking the agreement or process, (2) attacking the arbitrator, or (3) attacking the award.

Significant discussion of relevant case law occurs throughout the paper, and an included Appendix notes case law relevant to specific sections of the Arbitration Act for the purpose of further study.

This paper is part of a collection presented at LESA’s 52^nd Annual Refresher: Family Law program in Lake Louise on May 5–7, 2019.
