Americans With Disabilities Act

Since the passage of the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) in 1990, GKG Law attorneys have defended operators of public facilities in state and Federal enforcement actions, private litigation and Department of Justice mediations.

Our attorneys have been active in negotiations and rulemaking proceedings at both the Access Board and the Department of Justice.  We have participated in ANSI A117.1 standard making activities and we have represented trade associations in working with major disability rights groups to develop consensus positions on proposed regulations.  We regularly assist clients by reviewing construction plans and surveying existing properties to evaluate ADA compliance.
