| Steakout LLCsource ↗ filed by Schapiro Law Group PL · Judge Stephen C. Dries · No. 2:26-cv-01726 · 28:1331 Federal Question: Other Civil Rights · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $65K–$530K ▾ADA accessibility claims split in comparables: Lowell v. Lyft affirmed dismissal for failure to prove effective modification, while Holmes v. Bax affirmed ADA violations at summary judgment. Price v. Diab shows fee-shifting complexity even after default judgment favors plaintiffs. 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.) matters most — plaintiff bears burden to show proposed accommodation is effective, a common failure point in ADA accessibility suits like this restaurant case. Main risk: Dismissal for failure to plead a concrete, effective architectural/service modification, as in Lowell v. Lyft. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $50K–$300K Single-defendant case with no prior record; small comparable sample and lack of class-action structure limit precision of estimates. · grounded in 7 rulings, 3 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | E.D.

| Experian Information Solutions, Inc.source ↗ filed by The Consumer Lawyers, PLLC · No. 8:26-cv-02850 · 15:1681 Fair Credit Reporting Act · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $2.25M–$100M ▾FCRA claims against CRAs/furnishers survive dismissal only when specific statutory duties are alleged, as in Minano v. DLJ where most furnisher-liability counts were dismissed for lacking a private right of action or insufficient pleading; disclosure-based claims like Askins v. CRST show courts will sustain bare statutory-violation theories. Experian faces repeated individual FCRA filings, suggesting routine but fact-sensitive litigation rather than uniform outcomes. Comparable settlements $2.25M–$100M median $3.25M · n=10 Equifax $100M · TransUnion $8.31M · Trader Joe's $7.40M Per member (realized): ~$102 median · $25–$500 (n=3) Comparable verdict: TransUnion $60M · TransUnion, LLC $40M Key precedent: Minano v. DLJ Mortgage Capital — shows FCRA furnisher claims often dismissed unless properly pled under viable provisions, a direct risk for Experian. Main risk: Dismissal for failure to state a claim under specific FCRA provisions, as in Minano, especially if allegations mirror furnisher-liability theories lacking private right of action. This defendant: Multiple recent filings against Experian (Harding, Fuller, Butler, Stanislaus, Logan, Kancharla) show recurring FCRA litigation pattern, not necessarily class-wide. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): –$5M Single-plaintiff filing; class size and EV are speculative absent certification or aggregation data. · grounded in 10 rulings, 10 settlements, 2 verdicts | Filing | Consumer Credit (FCRA/FDCPA) | M.D. Fla. | 2026-09-22 | $2.25M–$100M comparable settlements |

Outcome likely hinges on specific technology (chat/session replay) and whether Ulta fits any statutory carve-out. Comparable settlements $59.50M–$725M median $81.50M · n=10 Meta $725M · Google $425M · Google LLC $135M Per member (realized): ~$29 median · $29–$100 (n=3) Comparable verdict: Google LLC $425.70M · Google LLC $425.65M Key precedent: Doe v. Bayhealth Medical Ctr. — survived because provider owed confidentiality duty; Ulta lacks that fiduciary relationship, weakening analogy but showing tracking-tech claims can clear MTD. Main risk: Dismissal on statutory exemption or lack of interception grounds, similar to Tower Health (Meta Pixel dismissed) and Nuance (BIPA exemption) This defendant: One prior privacy-adjacent settlement (Stermer v. Ulta, 2008) shows willingness to settle rather than litigate to judgment Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $50M–$500M Small, heterogeneous comparable set; actual technology/claim mechanics (wiretap vs. tracking pixel) not specified, and class size is a rough proxy from loyalty membership, not confirmed exposed users. · grounded in 8 rulings, 10 settlements, 4 verdicts | Filing | Privacy & Wiretap | S.D.

Lyft affirmed dismissal for failure to prove effective modification, while Holmes v. Bax affirmed ADA violations at summary judgment; S.D. Fla. is a high-volume forum for these single-plaintiff tester suits. 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 proposed accessibility fix is reasonable/effective, a common defense angle here. Main risk: Dismissal for failure to show a reasonable, effective accommodation exists, as in Lowell v. Lyft Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $2K–$15K No prior H&M records, no direct verdict comparables, and settlement data is from larger institutional cases, not single-plaintiff ADA testers — wide uncertainty. · grounded in 7 rulings, 3 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | S.D.

| SVT DESIGNS, INC.source ↗ filed by Mendez Law Offices, PLLC · Judge Beth Francine Bloom · No. 1:26-cv-26503 · 42:12182 Americans with Disabilities Act · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $65K–$530K ▾Comparable rulings split: Lowell v. Lyft affirmed dismissal where plaintiff couldn't prove effective modification, while Holmes v. Bax affirmed ADA claims but vacated injunctive relief for remedy analysis gaps. SVT Designs is a small Coral Gables firm, suggesting a single-plaintiff or small-group web-accessibility suit rather than a true class action. 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.) - dismissal affirmed because plaintiff failed to prove reasonableness/effectiveness of requested modification, a common defense in ADA website suits. Main risk: Title III ADA provides no compensatory damages; recovery is capped at injunctive relief plus attorney's fees, per Price v. Diab fee-shifting framework. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $3K–$75K Small sample, no defendant-specific history, and web signals are ambiguous about which 'SVT' entity is the actual defendant. · grounded in 7 rulings, 3 settlements, 0 verdicts | Filing | ADA / Accessibility | S.D.
