| The Brooklyn Hospital Centersource ↗ filed by The Parker Law Group P.C. · No. 1:26-cv-06515 · 28:1331 Federal Question: Other Civil Rights · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $65K–$530K ▾Second Circuit's Lowell v. Lyft shows ADA accessibility claims can be dismissed when plaintiff fails to prove reasonable modification effectiveness, while Holmes v. Bax shows ADA claims can survive summary judgment when institutional practices are well-documented; hospital accessibility facts are fact-intensive and outcome-sensitive. 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.) — same circuit, affirms that plaintiff bears burden on reasonableness/effectiveness of accommodation, a likely hurdle here. Main risk: Dismissal for failure to plead a plausible, effective accommodation, as in Lowell v. Lyft (2d Cir., same circuit as this case). Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $2K–$500K Small, heterogeneous comparable set (no hospital-specific ADA rulings or prior Brooklyn Hospital Center litigation); class size and per-member figures are rough estimates, not empirically derived for healthcare ADA accessibility claims. · grounded in 8 rulings, 3 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | E.D.N.Y | 2026-10-08 | $65K–$530K comparable settlements |
