California ADA Lawsuits Are Costing Small Businesses Thousands: Who's Protected?

In the US, a letter from an attorney can cost a small business tens of thousands of dollars before a single judge sees the case. California alone receives more Americans with Disabilities Act lawsuits than any other state in the country. Who is the law actually protecting?

In this episode, Siyamak speaks with Taha Saleh, Owner and Operator of T.A. Saleh, on what a single lawsuit threat cost him to resolve; Victor Gomez, Executive Director for California Citizens Against Lawsuit Abuse (CALA), on who is being targeted and whether the current system is actually serving people with disabilities; and Roger Niello, Senator, on the reform bill that passed the Senate with nearly no opposition and what it would take to change it.
