About the Program

Owners and operators of real estate – whether it be lodging facilities, shopping centers, retail stores, warehouses, or office buildings -- must navigate the complex set of laws that prohibit discrimination against members of the public who have disabilities.  This webinar explains how the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Fair Housing Act (FHA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act (Section 504) apply (or do not apply) to various property types, provide an overview of the key requirements, and offer practical guidance on how to comply and minimize litigation.

 Key topics include:

  • ADA, FHA, and Section 504 Requirements: Understanding the obligations of real estate owners under these laws
  • Debunking Common Myths:  Addressing the most widespread misconceptions
  • Common Landlord Pitfalls:  Understanding the most common pitfalls for landlords
  • Consequences of Non-Compliance: Exploring the legal ramifications of non-compliance and enforcement actions.
