Lyft shows courts require plaintiffs prove effectiveness of requested modification, a real hurdle here. 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, Inc. (2d Cir.) — affirmed dismissal because plaintiff failed to show proposed accessibility modification would be effective, a recurring ADA pleading burden. Main risk: Plaintiff may fail to plead/prove a concrete, effective remedial modification, as in Lowell v. Lyft, leading to dismissal. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $10K–$300K Defendant identity/size unclear from web signals; comparables mostly off-theory; small settlement sample limits precision. · grounded in 7 rulings, 3 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | S.D.N.Y. | 2026-09-24 | $65K–$530K comparable settlements |
