| ETAM USA Inc.source ↗ filed by Brasil , Brasil PA · Judge Jacqueline Becerra · No. 1:26-cv-26884 · 42:12182 Americans with Disabilities Act · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $65K–$530K ▾ADA accessibility claims show mixed outcomes: Lowell v. Lyft affirmed dismissal where plaintiffs failed to prove modification efficacy, while Holmes v. Bax affirmed ADA violations where agency conduct was clearer. Price v. Diab shows injunctive relief plus fee-shifting is a real exposure even on default. 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 courts scrutinize whether proposed accessibility fixes are concretely 'effective,' a likely battleground for ETAM's website remediation defense. Main risk: Dismissal for lack of standing/mootness if ETAM remediates site quickly, as nearly mooted in Burton v. Chase Point before remand. This defendant: Prior filing (Gazonni v. ETAM USA) on same ADA/accessibility theory suggests ETAM is a repeat target for serial ADA web-access plaintiffs. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $2K–$25K Small, non-identical sample; ADA Title III suits yield no statutory damages, so value is driven mainly by attorney fees and remediation costs, not per-class payouts. · grounded in 8 rulings, 3 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | S.D.
