About the Book
This book, written from the perspective of a lawyer with a disability (the author is hearing impaired), demonstrates that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is not just a law, but a way of life. It also discusses preventive lawyering with regards to the ADA. Since the first edition was published, the U.S. Supreme Court has decided over a dozen cases on the ADA and there have also been many appellate decisions as well. In this second edition, the Supreme Court decisions not included in the first edition and some of the appellate opinions that have come down since then are analyzed to provide the reader with an understanding of the workings of the ADA as it exists today.
The book covers:
Concept of undue hardship and reasonable accomodation in the employment context
Treatment of alcoholics and drug addicts
The ADA and health insurance
Places of public accomodations and commercial facilities
The interrelationship between the ADA and other laws
And more
The book also includes sample complaints and answers as well as a table of statues and regualations.
