ADA web litigation in Florida, in plain English

Are ADA website lawsuits common in Florida?
Yes. Florida is one of the most active federal jurisdictions for ADA website-accessibility lawsuits. New York, Florida, and California together account for over 70% of these filings nationwide. We track 60 federal filings in Florida in our dataset.
What kinds of businesses get sued in Florida?
Federal ADA website filings target restaurants and food service, retail and e-commerce, lifestyle and fashion brands, hospitality, healthcare, and small consumer brands. Sites with a physical location plus an online presence are the most common targets — the legal theory under Robles v. Domino's clearly applies.
Can I be sued in Florida if my business isn't located there?
Yes. Federal courts have applied long-arm jurisdiction to website-accessibility cases when a business serves customers in the state. The question is whether your site is reachable from Florida, not where you're headquartered.
How do I check if my own site is at risk?
Run the same axe-core scan plaintiff firms use. It's free, takes about 60 seconds, and shows roughly what a serial filer's automated tool would find on your site.
