Commercial
Real Estate
Attorneys involved in the representation of a client in a “commercial
real estate transaction” should request (within the due diligence
period) provide their client with an ADA Title III inspection report
of the subject property in order to identify all ADA violations,
making the client aware of the violations and the possibility of
future ADA Title III law suites being filed against him if the required
ADA Implementation Plan (inspection report) is not performed and
administered for the subject property. This report and cost of the
fixes associated with the barriers identified on the report could
serve as a negotiations mechanism to escrow the amount of the fixes
from the Real Estate transaction, among others. Our reports include
a proposed correction of the violations and a line item cost estimate
to fix such violations etc. Due to trade secrets, proprietorship
software, protocols, means and methods we invite you to give us an
opportunity to provide you a sample work product and to answer any
questions you might have.
