You Don't Need A Lawsuit: It's really important that you comply with the ADA rules and regulations unless you want to run the chance of being slapped with a lawsuit. According to several ADA lawsuits filed in 2014, lawsuits rose to 63% which were higher than in 2013. Keep in mind, there are people who spend their entire lives looking into the practice of businesses and always on the lookout for businesses that fail to comply with the ADA regulations. This would include not providing a number of handicapped parking spaces. If you are not in compliance and they find you, they will sue your business and if they win, you will be hit with a significant cash payout. Protect Your Business By Staying In Compliance With The ADA: Not only will this keep you from looking over your shoulder, but future customers are attracted by businesses that are in compliance with the ADA, especially disabled customers. It really doesn't take a lot of money, just turn certain parking spaces into handicapped spots, increase the width of the aisles and doorways, add ramps for access to the building, especially where stairs might exist. One of the biggest challenges for small businesses is being aware of various law requirements. You can hire an expert to perform an ADA site survey. Your money will be wisely spent, especially if they discover where changes must be made to keep lawsuits away from your door.

"My name is Anastasia Yecke Gude and I am the owner of Healing Hands Therapeutic Massage LLC. In the process of my company’s growth and expansion, I suddenly found myself a few weeks ago in need of a 1099 contractor agreement, and I needed it ASAP. As in, the very next day! I contacted the Law Office of Yoel Molina and his assistant put me in touch with Mo. I sent him what I had drafted up and he replied within a few hours with suggested revisions and clarifications, as well as a few insights I had not even considered. I was thoroughly impressed by the quality of work he provided, especially considering the time crunch I put him in (sorry, Mo!). I definitely recommend his services to anyone in need of a good contract attorney, and I will be calling him again for future work…hopefully in less of a rush next time!"
