The Hidden Legal Risk in Your Website
Many organizations don’t realize their website is a legal liability.
Under ADA Title III, your website is considered part of your business. If it’s not accessible, you can be sued.
And this is not just happening to large corporations.
👉 Small businesses are increasingly being targeted.
Common Website Accessibility Issues
Some of the most common violations include:
- Missing alt text for images
- Poor color contrast
- Buttons not labeled properly
- Forms that are not accessible
- Missing headings and structure
Federal Contractors Face Even More Risk
If your organization works with the federal government, you must comply with:
✔️ Section 508
✔️ Provide a VPAT (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template)
Failure to comply can result in:
- Lost contracts
- Disqualification from RFPs
Don’t Wait for a Lawsuit
The best time to fix your website is before someone files a complaint.
