Jonathan Meer (Partner-New York, NY) and Angela Sekerka (Of Counsel-New York, NY) will present the Wilson Elser Forum webinar “The Shifting Landscape of Fair Housing Law” on September 10, 2026. This webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of the ever-changing landscape of fair housing law, beginning with the foundation of the Fair Housing Act and the key issues involving fair housing discrimination nationwide. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has been reworking its guidance across a range of fair housing issues, requiring providers to comply with new standards. As the new administration’s priorities continue to drive these changes, this presentation will explore how compliance with fair housing law is a moving target. It will examine challenges to what is considered reasonable accommodation and the use of criminal background checks in housing decisions. Additionally, the presentation will offer insight into emerging legislation on algorithmic rent-setting and source-of-income discrimination. The session will conclude with guidance on how providers should approach their housing policies and navigate the fluctuating laws of fair housing.
