Seyfarth Shaw LLP posted an article on November 17, 2020 entitled How Will DOJ Enforce Title III of the ADA in a Biden Administration? The article is by By Minh N. Vu and Kristina M. Launey

The synopsis of the article is that a Biden Administration Department of Justice (DOJ) will likely bring higher engagement and more aggressive enforcement on Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title III issues.

Vu and Launey went on to say “We think there will be much higher engagement – and likely more aggressive enforcement – on multiple fronts. We expect the Biden Administration to resume the aggressive approach to enforcement taken by the DOJ during the Obama years. As a result of increased enforcement, businesses should expect DOJ to demand higher monetary damages and civil penalties and more onerous remedial terms.”
