Lyft and Billesdon show ADA accessibility claims dismissed absent proof of effective remedy, while Holmes v. Bax affirmed ADA violations at summary judgment. Outcome is fact-specific to accommodation reasonableness. 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.) — SDNY circuit precedent placing burden on plaintiff to prove proposed accommodation is effective, a common failure point. Main risk: Plaintiff fails to show proposed modification/accommodation is reasonable and effective, as in Lowell v. Lyft dismissal Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $15K–$250K Small, heterogeneous comparable set; ADA Title III yields no monetary damages so 'per-member' reflects fee/settlement proxies, not statutory damages. · grounded in 7 rulings, 3 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | S.D.N.Y. | 2026-09-22 | $65K–$530K comparable settlements |
