Sarah Bell will be a panelist at the Knowledge Congress’ webcast, “Litigation Risks Under the ADA: What You Need to Know to Protect Your Business in 2015 LIVE Webcast.”

The American with Disabilities Act (ADA) has played an important role in protecting handicapped individuals from discrimination. However, this regulation also poses a risk to businesses that fail to comply. The number of lawsuits has increased dramatically, many of which are 'drive-by lawsuits' aimed at profiteering. The risk of such law suits will spread rapidly across the U.S. until the regulations are revised. Until then, it would be wise for businesses to understand the requirements of the ADA and have disability experts review their policies, procedures, facilities, and websites for compliance.

Key discussion topics include:

• ADA Litigation - an Overview
• New Proposed Regulations under ADA
• Common ADA Violations
• Website and Mobile Application Access for the Disabled
• Accessible Website Standards
• Adoption Issues and Challenges
• Possible Implications for Private Online Companies
• Best Compliance and Risk Mitigation Practices
• Reasonable Legal Actions
• Compliance and Regulatory Risks
