As a real estate developer or business owner, you have a lot on your plate. The last thing you want to deal with is an unjustified housing discrimination or ADA lawsuit.
Property buyers and tenants sometimes bring about ADA lawsuits because of perceived discrimination. If you chose not to sell a property to a specific buyer, they could claim your decision was based on discrimination. If you failed to include certain features in the property, someone could say you violated the Americans with Disabilities Act.
At Furukawa Castles LLP, our San Francisco-based housing discrimination lawyers represent housing discrimination and Title III ADA lawsuit defense cases for business owners and developers across San Francisco. We understand the stress and hassle that come with refuting these often unwarranted claims. Let us guide you through the legal process and improve your chances of winning.
Under the Fair Housing Act, individuals have the right to housing regardless of their religious beliefs, gender, sexual orientation, race, or any other identifying factors. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires real estate developers and business owners to maintain accessibility compliance. Both of these acts can be the source of lawsuits against your business.
These are a few common claims against business owners and real estate developers involving perceived discrimination:
No matter the reason behind your lawsuit, our attorneys can assist. We have experience with a range of ADA lawsuit defense cases for business owners and developers across San Francisco. We also provide legal counsel and pre-litigation solutions for cases involving zoning regulations, land use planning, and more.
Despite the prevalence of real estate developer housing discrimination defense cases, these lawsuits are challenging for plaintiffs to prove. As your attorneys, we will show that you acted fairly and legitimately and that discrimination was not at play in any housing decisions you made.
We begin by gathering evidence, such as building blueprints, inspections regarding building codes, proof of the language from the ADA and Fair Housing Act, and more. We can compare your property design or layout to other properties in the area to show that you did not stray from reasonable expectations for the blueprint. We can also provide evidence showing why you denied specific housing applicants.
We understand that real estate developers and business owners often do not have the time or knowledge to navigate these cases on their own. We’ll leverage our legal training and experience in ADA lawsuit defense cases for business owners and developers to assist you.
Abuse of the ADA and discrimination lawsuits is prevalent throughout California. The case against you may not be warranted or justified, and our lawyers specializing in ADA defense in San Francisco and the rest of California can help you clear your business’s name.
Allow our San Francisco-based housing discrimination attorney to represent you throughout the legal process, from initiating a lawsuit to a jury trial, if necessary. We will take as much of the legal responsibility off your shoulders as possible so you can focus on your business.
