Are You at Risk?
All business websites need to be ADA compliant.
Even small accounting firms.
Why your site MUST be ADA compliant:
Legal Obligation Under ADA
The Department of Justice (DOJ) mandates that websites must comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title III, making web accessibility a legal requirement for businesses. With over 16% of the U.S. population living with disabilities—including visual, cognitive, and motor impairments—ensuring an inclusive online experience is not just a legal duty but a critical business responsibility.
ADA Expanded for the Digital Age
Originally enacted in 1990, the ADA was expanded in 2008 to reflect the modern digital landscape, requiring websites to meet accessibility standards. As more daily transactions and communications move online, your website is considered a "public space" under the law and must be accessible to everyone.
Rapid Rise of Web Accessibility Lawsuits
Web accessibility lawsuits have surged, with 4,605 cases filed in 2023 alone, marking a 42% increase from 2022. Businesses are increasingly targeted, and failure to comply with ADA standards puts your website at a high risk of litigation. Don't let your company be part of this growing statistic.
Severe Financial Penalties
The financial consequences of non-compliance are steep. Fines for a single ADA violation range from $55,000 to $75,000, and for subsequent violations, penalties can escalate to $150,000. Even beyond direct fines, legal costs, damage to your brand, and loss of trust can have a devastating impact on your business.
Size of Affected Population: 61 Million People
Approximately 61 million Americans live with disabilities that could impede their ability to use your website if it’s not properly designed. By excluding these individuals, you're not only opening yourself up to lawsuits, but you're also missing out on a significant customer base.
Who Is Exempt?
While religious organizations and private clubs may be exempt from ADA website compliance, most businesses are required to adhere to these guidelines. If your business operates in the public domain, your website must be accessible.
Litigation Risks: Who Can Sue You?
Any individual with a disability can file a lawsuit if they encounter barriers on your website. In fact, 16 law firms are responsible for filing 90% of ADA web accessibility lawsuits, often as part of class actions. The cost of settling these cases typically ranges from $5,000 to $20,000, not including legal fees, which can quickly escalate.
