ADA Compliance and Defense Lawyers

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Compliance and Defense Services

Kaufman Dolowich is a leading national law firm serving a broad range of industries with a team of highly skilled practitioners representing clients of all sizes both domestically and globally.

Our robust labor and employment practice is well-equipped to assist businesses in complying with their obligations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities, as well as with state and local laws.

ADA Defense Services

We actively and proactively defend accessibility claims for brick-and-mortar locations and websites in both single-plaintiff and class actions.

ADA lawsuits continue to skyrocket. We continuously see claims alleging physical places of public accommodations are inaccessible. On the digital front, claims allege that websites are also inaccessible to those with disabilities.

Our ADA compliance lawyers actively represent clients in a variety of ADA and accessibility matters from pre-litigation through resolution. Whether a suit is brought by an individual or on a class basis, the ADA attorneys at Kaufman Dolowich are well-equipped to defend the matter. Our team works with clients to develop strategies aimed at resolving the risk matter as quickly and cost-effectively as possible and mitigating the risk of future claims.

Our attorneys have extensive experience assisting clients with individual plaintiff and class-action lawsuits and complying with federal, state, and local laws.

We work with businesses and public accommodations across the spectrum, from hotels and casinos to property owners and management companies, who may also face additional obligations under the Fair Housing Act. These employers may also face employee-related concerns.

Our team has handled many compliance investigations and enforcement actions, including those commenced by the U.S. Department of Justice, and other state and local enforcement agencies.
