Adam Bialek (Partner-New York) and Kara Thorvaldsen (Partner-Boston) will lead an initial four-session Gallagher legal panel created by AAAtraq™, leaders in compliance identification and management services, to raise web compliance under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Despite best efforts, over 94 percent of websites fail to meet generally accepted web accessibility standards, which can result in unintentional discrimination against those with disabilities and expose the site operators to litigation and liability. Additionally, lacking an understanding of standards and regulations can be devastating, most often requiring an attorney who specializes in accessibility suits. Typical litigation time can be nine to fourteen months and the costs, compensation and damage to a brand considerable. This webinar will present an overview of the applicable regulatory regime, the risks of noncompliance, and strategies to mitigate risks.
Registration is available on the event website.
