Housing Discrimination Claims Available to Be Reviewed By Business Trial Attorneys

The business trial lawyers at Morgan and Morgan are available to review claims from individuals who suspect they were subjected to violations of the Fair Housing Amendments Act or the Americans with Disabilities Act. These laws, which were enacted to prohibit disability discrimination in housing, provide a number of rights to the disabled, and when violated, may result in legal action. If your rights under these laws were violated, find out if you can participate in a housing discrimination lawsuit to recover compensation for your losses.  Visit http://businesstrialgroup.com/ and complete the free case review form with details of your housing discrimination claim to determine your eligibility for legal recourse.  

Most commonly, housing discrimination occurs when a disabled individual is refused their right to reasonable modifications of the premises. Under disability discrimination laws, disabled individuals are given the opportunity to request reasonable accommodations at their own expense at any time during their tenancy. A reasonable modification is a structural change and may include: widening or altering doorways; lowering kitchen cabinets; or adding wheelchair accessible ramps. The property owner making the reasonable accommodation is allowed to ask inquire disability in relation to the request, but is not permitted to ask intrusive questions. When a property owner fails to fulfill a reasonable accommodation or otherwise violates federal disability discrimination laws, those who suffered losses as a result may be entitled to financial compensation. 

If you or a loved one was discriminated against in housing, the attorneys at Morgan and Morgan’s business trial group may be able to assist with your case. The lawyers recently launched a practice group devoted to protecting those who suffered losses as result of discriminatory violations. In January, the housing discrimination attorney group filed its first lawsuit on behalf of a client who was injured due to alleged discriminatory practices at an Orlando apartment complex and remains committed to those subjected to similar actions.
