While the DOJ has made clear that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) applies to business websites, to date, it has refused to develop specific regulations that can be used to measure compliance.
Instead, under its recent “Flexibility Guidance,” the DOJ simply leaves it up to business owners to figure out if they are in compliance. With all this gray area – what can be done? Jeff Lantz & Desire'e Martinelli of Esquire Interactive will enlighten you on the best practices for website accessibility for business owners by covering: key rulings & DOJ Guidance, WCAG Success Criteria (Level AA), website accessibility best practices, accessibility compliance checkers, accessibility plugins and key takeaways for attorneys & law firms. Additional topics: recent DOJ Flexibility Guidance, Robles v. Domino’s Pizza, Public Accommodations, text size + color contrast, WCAG Success Guidelines, webpages + applications, Google reCAPTCHA, ALT tags, navigation, video elements, Microsoft Office Accessibility Checker, Adobe Accessibility Checker, closed captioning, heading tags, transcription, PDFs, WAVE and risk tolerance.
Desire'e Martinelli is an attorney and the Director of Marketing & Analytics of Esquire Interactive LLC. Jeff Lantz is an attorney, entrepreneur and the CEO of Esquire Interactive LLC, an interactive digital marketing agency for attorneys and law firms.
