ANOTHER BUSINESS “BITES THE DUST”
ADA LAWSUIT CAUSES OCEANSIDE BUSINESS TO CLOSE

WHAT: A “Wake” will be held to say farewell to yet another business closed due to   one of California’s 10,000+ ADA Access Lawsuits.   This “wake” will be even more sad because not only did the business withstand the original lawsuit, but they paid thousands of dollars for expensive renovations to increase access for the disabled.  The business closed, because as the current law stands, there is no protection from future lawsuits, an army of "professional plaintiffs” roves through California filing these lawsuits and seeking nuisance settlements from as little as $5,000 to more than $100,000 per business.  After 26 years without problems, this popular night spot will close its doors in Oceanside and the disabled will not have a chance to use any of the renovations that were made.   This “Wake” is an attempt to expose the problem of predatory lawsuits, filed in the name of increasing access for the disabled, but from which only a select few plaintiffs and their attorneys have made millions. We will also have a solemn remembrance of the many businesses that have closed their doors, let employees go, or were forced to seek bankruptcy protection against unscrupulous attorney tactics in bringing these lawsuits.
