Newmen Law, P.C. ('Newmen Law,' 'we,' 'us,' or 'our') is committed to making www.newmenlaw.com (the 'Website') accessible to the broadest possible audience, including users with disabilities. This Accessibility Statement describes our commitment, the standard we work toward, the steps we take to maintain accessibility, and how to contact us if you encounter an accessibility issue.
1. Our Commitment
We believe that everyone should be able to access information about our legal services. We are committed to providing a Website that is accessible to people with a wide range of abilities, regardless of the assistive technology they use, the device they use, or the way they interact with the Web. We treat accessibility as an ongoing responsibility, not a one-time exercise.
2. Accessibility Standard
We aim to conform substantially to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium. WCAG 2.1 Level AA is widely recognized as the technical standard for digital accessibility under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the California Unruh Civil Rights Act, and similar federal and state laws. We use WCAG 2.1 Level AA as a guide for design, development, and content choices.
3. Measures We Take
To support accessibility on the Website, we work toward the following:
- Designing pages with sufficient color contrast between text and background to support readability.
- Providing meaningful text alternatives for images and other non-text content where appropriate.
- Structuring pages with headings, landmarks, and lists so that assistive technologies can navigate the content.
- Ensuring that interactive elements such as links, buttons, and form fields are reachable and operable by keyboard.
- Avoiding reliance on color alone to convey meaning.
- Providing form labels and error messages that are programmatically associated with the relevant fields.
- Allowing users to resize text without loss of content or functionality.
- Reviewing accessibility considerations when adding new pages or features.
4. Limitations and Known Issues
Despite our efforts, some content on the Website may not yet be fully accessible. Possible limitations include:
- Older blog posts and historical content that may use formatting or media that does not fully meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA.
- Third-party content embedded on the Website that is outside our direct control, such as third-party widgets or videos.
- Documents posted on the Website in PDF or other formats that may not be fully tagged for accessibility.
We treat each issue brought to our attention as an opportunity to improve. If a particular piece of content is not accessible to you, contact us using the information below and we will work to make the content available in an accessible alternative format.
5. Assistive Technology Compatibility
The Website is designed to work with current versions of common assistive technologies, including screen readers, screen magnifiers, voice recognition software, and keyboard-only navigation. Compatibility may vary depending on the specific combination of operating system, browser, and assistive technology you use. If you experience an issue with a particular combination, please let us know.
6. Feedback and Contact
Your feedback helps us improve. If you encounter a barrier to accessibility on the Website, or if you would like to request that specific information be provided to you in an accessible format, contact us by any of the following methods. We aim to respond to accessibility feedback within five (5) business days.
