| Sally Beauty Supply, LLCsource ↗ filed by Joseph & Norinsberg, LLC · No. 1:26-cv-09530 · 42:12188 Americans With Disabilities Act - Civil Enforcement Actions · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $65K–$780K ▾ADA accessibility claims split in comparables: Holmes v. Bax affirmed ADA violations, while Lowell v. Lyft and Billesdon show courts dismissing ADA claims absent proof of effective, reasonable modifications. Sally Beauty's retail/website nature places it closer to Lowell's reasonableness-burden analysis. Comparable settlements $65K–$780K median $365K · n=4 The Container Stor $780K · Covenant Retiremen $530K · Association of Apa $200K Key precedent: Lowell v. Lyft (2d Cir.) - affirmed dismissal because plaintiff failed to prove proposed accommodation would be effective, a likely analog for retail accessibility claims. Main risk: Plaintiff may fail to show proposed remediation is reasonable/effective, as in Lowell v. Lyft, leading to dismissal before damages phase. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $50K–$800K Small, heterogeneous comparable set; no prior Sally Beauty ADA history; true class size and per-member structure unclear without case filing specifics. · grounded in 9 rulings, 4 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | S.D.N.Y. | 2026-10-30 | $65K–$780K comparable settlements |
