Website accessibility audits, remediation, and conformance documentation from our St. Petersburg office. Start with the free risk assessment — five minutes, no email required — and you’ll know where you stand before we ever talk.
Federal ADA website filings in Florida in 2025 — second-highest of any state.
Florida’s national rank. New York leads; Florida and California trade second and third.
The share of WCAG failures an automated scanner can detect. The rest need a human with a screen reader.
Small-business exemptions in the ADA. Most defendants are small operators, not national brands.
None of this means a claim is coming for you. It means the base rate in this state is high, the pattern is well documented, and the barriers cited are almost always the same handful: unlabeled form fields, missing alt text, keyboard traps in menus and modals, low-contrast text, uncaptioned video, untagged PDFs. All of them are fixable, and cheaper to fix than to litigate.
Ten questions about your sector, your states, your transactional flows, your platform, and the barriers you already suspect. It scores your exposure against the patterns that actually drive filings and tells you which two or three things to deal with first.
Selecting Florida alone moves the needle. It’s one of the three venues that account for most federal filings.
Assessment tells you where you stand. This is what closing the gap looks like.
Manual testing against WCAG 2.1 and 2.2 Level AA with NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver, keyboard-only operation, and zoom. You get a findings register: every issue mapped to its criterion, with severity, user impact, repro steps, and effort.
2–3 weeks, typical siteWe fix it — in your codebase or ours. Front-end engineering, component and design-system corrections, PDF tagging, captions and transcripts. Highest-impact barriers on transactional flows go first, because that’s where claims start.
Scoped from the registerRetest, then a conformance report — a VPAT/ACR if you sell to government or enterprise, an accessibility statement and dated remediation record either way. Good-faith progress is only worth what you can show.
On the ITI VPAT templatePricing follows our published rates. Selling into federal or state government? The Section 508 practice covers procurement-grade documentation.
Our Florida studio is on Central Avenue in downtown St. Petersburg, with garage parking a block north. We work with businesses, practices, and public entities across St. Petersburg, Tampa, Clearwater, Largo, Brandon, Bradenton, and Sarasota — Pinellas and Hillsborough most often, and on site when it’s useful.
We’ve been building accessible by default since 2014, and we serve as an independent expert in ADA Title II, Title III, and Section 508 matters. That’s the standard every audit we write is held to — which is exactly why it’s worth having ours rather than a scanner’s PDF.

Courts have consistently treated the websites of places of public accommodation as covered under Title III, and public entities are covered under Title II. There is no small-business exemption, and most defendants in these matters are small operators.
No. Overlay toolbars now appear in hundreds of filings a year, sometimes as evidence that a business knew about the barrier and bought a shortcut. Conformance happens in your own markup.
WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the practical benchmark cited in settlements and consent decrees, and it’s the standard the DOJ’s Title II rule sets for state and local government. We test against 2.1 and 2.2 Level AA.
Talk to your counsel first, then get an independent technical assessment. We document the current state, prioritize the barriers a plaintiff’s expert would cite, and build a dated remediation record. We are not a law firm and this page isn’t legal advice.
The audit is two to three weeks for a typical marketing site or booking flow. Remediation depends on the platform — a cleanly built site is often a matter of weeks; a legacy theme or page builder can need template-level rework.
If the result comes back elevated, bring it to us and we’ll walk through it together. If it doesn’t, you’ve spent five minutes and learned something.
