Scott Fradin, co-chair of the firm's Construction group, authored an article for Construction Today that analyzed the steady growth of the multifamily housing industry and the corresponding increase in discrimination lawsuits for violations of the federal Fair Housing Amendments Act (FHAA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). He noted that developers should consider implementing a compliance program involving a knowledgeable third-party review of not only the architect's plans but also the contractor's work to ensure that accessibility requirements are met under federal law.
