Build It Right… And They Will Come! Failure to ensure that your plans comply with the
Americans with Disabilities
Act (ADA) places you at risk for litigation. The U.S. Department
of Justice has publicly stated that the architect, builder, and building
owner share responsibility for any new construction that does not comply with
the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines. |
