| SVT DESIGNS, INC.source ↗ filed by Mendez Law Offices, PLLC · Judge Beth Francine Bloom · No. 1:26-cv-26503 · 42:12182 Americans with Disabilities Act · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $65K–$530K ▾Comparable rulings split: Lowell v. Lyft affirmed dismissal where plaintiff couldn't prove effective modification, while Holmes v. Bax affirmed ADA claims but vacated injunctive relief for remedy analysis gaps. SVT Designs is a small Coral Gables firm, suggesting a single-plaintiff or small-group web-accessibility suit rather than a true class action. Comparable settlements $65K–$530K median $200K · n=3 Covenant Retiremen $530K · Association of Apa $200K · Home Depot U.S.A., $65K Key precedent: Lowell v. Lyft (2d Cir.) - dismissal affirmed because plaintiff failed to prove reasonableness/effectiveness of requested modification, a common defense in ADA website suits. Main risk: Title III ADA provides no compensatory damages; recovery is capped at injunctive relief plus attorney's fees, per Price v. Diab fee-shifting framework. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $3K–$75K Small sample, no defendant-specific history, and web signals are ambiguous about which 'SVT' entity is the actual defendant. · grounded in 7 rulings, 3 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | S.D.
