Description

Attorneys Eric C. Boughman and Charles W. “Skip” Sell discuss website accessibility requirements imposed by the Americans with Disability Act (ADA). The webinar will focus significantly on lessons learned from the first reported lawsuit to trial, where a supermarket giant whose website was not equally accessible was found to have violated the ADA. Businesses and public entities are required to make "reasonable accommodations" to meet the needs of individuals with disabilities. This applies to websites and includes compatibility with screen reading and speech recognition software, as well as, captioning for videos and multi-media presentations. Businesses with public-facing websites, marketing and website development companies, and disabled plaintiffs will all find value in the information provided. Don’t miss this second part in our series on internet compliance. Questions and audience participation are always welcome!
