Bax affirmed ADA violations while Lowell v. Lyft and Billesdon show courts often side with defendants absent proof of effective/reasonable modifications. Small-defendant ADA website cases in S.D.N.Y. frequently settle rather than reach trial. 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.) - shows plaintiffs bear burden proving modification effectiveness, a common failure point in ADA accessibility suits like this one. Main risk: Dismissal for failure to plead a concrete, effective accommodation/modification, as in Lowell v. Lyft. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $1K–$250K No prior defendant history, no verdict data, and small/ambiguous class size make this estimate highly speculative. · grounded in 8 rulings, 3 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | S.D.N.Y. | 2026-09-29 | $65K–$530K comparable settlements |
