Website Accessibility Services
ADA litigation has transcended the physical world, entering the realm of cyberspace. As a result, your business no longer needs a brick and mortar shop to be sued for failure to provide access to special needs patrons. Even without this threat, the fact is, if your business does not accommodate every prospective buyer of goods or services, you lose money. ADA-Expert has on-staff experts in accessible web design. If you are already being sued, ADA-Expert’s on-staff accessible web design experts will review the claim, provide an assessment report and remediate all issues detected.
Accessibility Tax Credit
In order to incentivize businesses to adhere to ADA compliance requirements, the U.S. government decided to help businesses that attain accessibility requirements, including for their websites.
Section 44 of the IRS Code allows a tax credit for small businesses while Section 190 of the IRS Code allows a tax deduction for all businesses.
The difference between a tax credit and a tax deduction is that a tax credit is subtracted from what you owe in taxes (after calculating your taxes), while a tax deduction is subtracted from your total income before calculating your taxes. In other words, a tax deduction is applied to your taxable income.
