Dealing with Issues Involving Accessibility and CompliancePeople with disabilities often have particular needs. Employers and public entities meet these needs by observing the accessibility and compliance guidelines of the ADA and California Building Code. At the law office of Eugene Feldman, we help clients throughout Hermosa Beach and Southern California obtain advice and consultation regarding accessibility compliance. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Accessibility Guidelines from the Department of Justice and the California Building Codes are three sources of law regarding building accessibility. Each case is unique, like the individual. We help clients determine if public areas and facilities are in compliance with the ADA accessibility guidelines and the California Building Code. Contact us online or call 866-920-8349 to schedule your free initial consultation with an experienced lawyer. Understanding the ADA and California Building CodeEasily removable architectural barriers must be removed under the ADA. The extent to which modifications may be required depends on a variety of factors. We help clients assess situations of accessibility and compliance, including: - Accessibility: Can an individual with a disability access the building, use the toilet and sink, and move their wheelchair through the doorway?
- Compliance: Are the toilet and sink high/low enough, and is the doorway wide enough? Is there a ramp to the building? Are there sufficient parking spaces for disabled individuals?
If you believe you have been denied access to a public facility on account of accessibility issues, we can help. Schedule your free initial consultation with an experienced attorney by contacting us online or by calling 866-920-8349.
