283 dental and medical practices got hit with ADA web lawsuits in 2025 — 7.17% of all filings. Pasadena's commercial corridors — Old Pasadena, the South Lake retail strip, the Playhouse District — concentrate the kind of independent restaurants, boutiques, and practices that 2025's accessibility-litigation wave is targeting. Polished storefronts, dated websites, low audit awareness. We rebuild dental practice sites in Pasadena to WCAG 2.1 AA in 1–2 weeks.
The most-clicked element on a practice site, and the most likely to fail. Old form-builder embeds (especially Jotform/Formstack-of-2014) ship without semantic labels.
Before/after veneers, Invisalign progress, full-mouth restorations — every photo is a litigation surface. Generic 'after' or no alt at all is the standard practice-site fail.
CareCredit forms, in-network insurance lists, financial policy — almost universally PDF. Screen readers can't read them; you can't index them; lawsuits cite them.
"General · Cosmetic · Implants · Pediatric" rendered as four icon-only links. No accessible names, no descriptive labels. WCAG 2.4.4 fail every time.
The 14-field intake form is a common keyboard-trap (modal that doesn't close on Esc, focus not returned, required-field errors that don't announce). HIPAA flows on top — high-stakes accessibility.
Live mobile scores in seconds — same engine Google uses to rank you. No email required.
That's 283 cases. Average settlement runs $25,000–$50,000; attorneys' fees on top. 77%of defendants are small businesses earning under $25M. Remediation costs a small fraction of either number — and the demand letter doesn't care how good your service is.

Run our automated audit above, or let us hand-write one. We return a written report with every WCAG criterion you fail, every Core Web Vital miss, and what each one would cost to fix.
Tied to a defined deliverable list. Not hourly. We tell you the price before any work begins; if it changes, you sign off first.
You see what we're building each day, not in a Friday update. We ship on the date in the quote.
Not necessarily. We can either rebuild your site and hand it back, or audit + remediate what they built. Most dental-marketing companies don't do code-level accessibility; we slot in for that piece.
Yes. Modern practice-management vendors publish accessible widgets; we wire them in. If the embed itself is broken, we'll flag the alternatives.
We don't store PHI on your site. The contact and intake forms post directly to your existing booking/EMR system over HTTPS — we don't add a database or store data ourselves. Your existing HIPAA posture isn't changed.
Yes. We draft descriptive alts for each photo (e.g., 'Adult patient, three months into Invisalign — anterior alignment improving') and have you sign off on them. You're not writing 80 alts.
Free. 1–2 weeks if you move forward. No overlay widgets. No 6-month timelines.
