Description

Disability Law for Property, Land Use, and Zoning Lawyers Robin Paul Malloy ISBN 9781641056779

More importantly, the author dispels the common misconception that disability law is limited to the design of doorways, restrooms, and office spaces. While physical design and accessibility are important considerations, disability compliance involves a far broader range of legal obligations. Understanding when specific laws apply, what actions are required, and how to avoid discrimination claims is critical. Failure to comply with these requirements can be costly and may result in prolonged and expensive litigation.

This book includes:

  • A clear and accessible explanation of key provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Fair Housing Act (FHA), the Rehabilitation Act (RHA), and the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA), along with definitions of essential terms and concepts under each statute

  • An in-depth analysis of the three primary methods for proving discrimination based on noncompliance with disability laws

  • A discussion of potential defenses to accessibility-related complaints, recognizing that not every request for increased accessibility must be granted and that specific legal standards apply

  • Numerous practical examples and illustrations to enhance understanding of applicable rules and regulations
