Watch the new On-Demand Webinar from UsableNet and Blank Rome LLP on ADA & the Internet: A 2022 Webinar Accessibility Legal Update

17-BR-LOGO-GREYRED-STANDARD-RGB-01

It's well known that physical access to brick and mortar locations must meet the ADA's standards of accessibility. But when it comes to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Internet, businesses have not received the same level of guidance from the Department of Justice (DOJ) about standards or requirements for websites and apps.

If you work for a company doing business over the Internet, this webinar will help you better understand what the courts have said about how the ADA applies to the internet, the impact on your business, and what you can do to reduce your risk of receiving an ADA-based lawsuit for your website or app. 

This webinar covers: 

  • How the courts are applying ADA to the Internet 
  • How the ADA is impacting real companies doing business online in 2022 - cases and trends in lawsuits
  • What the courts have said and why businesses with physical locations and websites may be more likely to receive lawsuits
  • What businesses can do right now to improve accessibility to prevent future lawsuits
  • Other preventative steps businesses can take to reduce their risk and exposure to legal action
