Overview

Highly respected and established members of the legal community, Albert Louis Stein, Q.C. (1908-2001) and Samuel Stein, Q.C. (1912-2006) founded Stein & Stein Inc. in 1934. Cultivating the highest standards of competence and ethics, they built the firm on the principles of equity and justice. In the early years, the brothers applied their proven expertise in civil and commercial law and litigation in defence of the fundamental rights and freedoms established in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Supreme Court judgment they obtained in Roncarelli vs. Duplessis (1959) remains a cornerstone of Canadian jurisprudence concerning the rule of law and its application to the highest of elected officials in Canada.
