ADA compliance is required by law for certain businesses and organizations, particularly those considered places of public accommodation. Failing to comply can result in legal action, including lawsuits and hefty fines. Here are some important facts about ADA website compliance and what we cover during our free workshops

Frequency of Cases – We are seeing many more lawsuits being issued now that the courts have resumed a more normal schedule. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) – WCAG 2.1 is the current standard being used to determine ADA Website compliance. If a company’s website is not up to date with the latest guidelines, then there is a strong possibility the site is not in compliance.

No Grace Period – The state of California does not offer any grace period to correct your website once a lawsuit has been served. A company or organization will have to either settle the lawsuit, try to fight in court and then still fix the ADA compliance errors on their website.

Third-Party Online Ordering – If a business uses a third-party online ordering system (e.g. Toast, Square, Uber Eats, etc.) and they are not ADA compliant, it does not prevent an ADA compliance lawsuit from being filed against you.

Online Widgets – There are widgets that can be installed onto a website that can help monitor for ADA compliance.
