Firm Overview
The law firm of Corfee Stone & Associates is the only leading premier law firm in California which exclusively represents employers and businesses regarding the following three (3) niche practice areas:
(1) all facets of employment/labor law;
(2) ADA handicap disabled access (defense only); and
(3) housing discrimination law under the Fair Housing Act and California state housing codes (defense only).
Corfee Stone handles matters regarding complex litigation and advice to employers regarding employment law, ADA disabled access law, and Fair Housing Discrimination. We have extensive experience state and federal court, including class action cases, appellate work, and administrative cases. As to administrative cases, for example, we have represented employers before the Department of Fair Employment Housing Commisson, Federal Department of Labor, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, HUD (Housing Urban Development), Cal/OSHA, and the WCAB (serious and willful claims/Labor Code 132a claims), etc.
Employment Law. Our areas of practice includes employment law advice, defending wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, violations of public policy, unfair competition, wage and hour disputes and other similar employment-related lawsuits. We advise as well as defend against ADA disability discrimination claims, requests for reasonable accommodations, substance/alcohol abuse and testing matters, privacy issues, federal and state family leave law, trade secrets, non-competition agreements, and more. Corfee Stone also advises employers regarding policies and practices to encourage positive employee relations to potentially avoid litigation.
ADA Handicap Access. Corfee Stone is unique in that we provide advice regarding handicap accessibility to owners and businesses. Your building can also be surveyed for compliance with federal and state disabled access codes. We have significant knowledge regarding state and federal disabled access codes including, but not limited to, restrooms, parking lots, path of travel issues, interior and exterior access, etc. We have represented hotels, shopping centers, restaurants, movie theaters, bowling alleys, shopping malls, banks, retail outlets, grocery stores, landlords, tenants, trusts, dental/doctor’s offices, automotive businesses, wrecking yards, etc.(see our case list). We also handle ADA issues regarding leases between landlords and tenants. See our “In the News” articles regarding the ADA.
Fair Housing Law. Corfee Stone defends homeowner associations, apartment housing, etc. regarding tenants and/or homeowners who claim housing discrimination. We have successfully defended, advised and trained housing accommodations in this area.
By exclusively focusing these 3 niche areas of law, we provide excellent legal services unmatched by others. There is a lot of cross-over with all three civil rights disciplines that give us special knowledge to be creative and advocate the correct legal position in cases. Our firm has prevailed many many times, and Ms. Corfee has published case law, which many attorneys never achieve in their life time. She has also represented Fortune 500 business, including the State of California. Her clients definitely consist of smaller businesses as well.
Our firm occasionally handles select employment law cases on behalf of employees (by appointment only).
Ms. Corfee has been in practice since 1991, and has extensive litigation experience as well as appellate work in both federal and state venues. See her representative client case list for a sample of her clients and cases.
