Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. (The Disability Guys) is committed to ensuring that thedisabilityguys.com is accessible to all users, including persons with disabilities. This statement describes our current conformance status, the measures we have taken, and how to contact us if you encounter a barrier.
Conformance Status
This website aims to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA, as published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). WCAG 2.2 AA is the recognized international standard for web accessibility and the benchmark referenced by U.S. courts in ADA Title III website litigation.
We recognize that accessibility is a continuing obligation, not a one-time project. This statement was last reviewed on May 14, 2026. We conduct internal reviews on a rolling basis and remediate identified issues as they are discovered.
Technical Measures We Have Taken
The following measures have been implemented across this website to support WCAG 2.2 AA conformance:
- Semantic HTML structure: Pages use proper landmark elements (<header>, <main>, <nav>, <footer>, <section>, <article>) so that screen readers can navigate by region.
- Logical heading hierarchy: Each page has a single H1. Heading levels (H2, H3, H4) descend in order without skipping, providing clear document structure for assistive technologies.
- Keyboard navigation: All interactive elements (links, buttons, form controls) are reachable and operable using only a keyboard. Focus order follows visual reading order. A visible skip-to-content link is present at the top of every page.
- Visible focus indicators: Focus states are clearly visible and meet the enhanced contrast requirements of WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 2.4.11 (Focus Appearance).
- Color contrast — body text: All body text meets a minimum contrast ratio of 7:1 against its background (WCAG AAA), exceeding the AA minimum of 4.5:1, to serve users with moderate low vision.
- Color contrast — large text and UI components: Graphical elements and large-scale text meet a minimum of 3:1 per WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.4.11.
- Alternative text: All meaningful images carry descriptive alt attributes. Decorative images use empty alt attributes (alt=””) so screen readers bypass them.
- Form labels: Every form input and select element is associated with a visible <label> element via the for/id attribute pair. Required fields are indicated both visually and programmatically (aria-required).
- Error identification: Form validation errors are announced to screen readers via ARIA live regions and are displayed adjacent to the relevant field in plain language.
- No keyboard traps: No component on this site traps keyboard focus. Modal dialogs and off-canvas menus return focus to the trigger element on close.
- Text resize: Content remains readable and functional at 200% browser zoom without horizontal scrolling or loss of content.
- Motion and animation: Non-essential animation is suppressed when the user has enabled the prefers-reduced-motion operating system setting.
- Language declaration: The lang attribute on the <html> element is set to the correct language for each page (lang=”en” for English pages, lang=”es” for Spanish pages), enabling correct pronunciation by screen readers.
- Link purpose: Link text is descriptive and meaningful out of context. Generic anchor text (“click here”, “read more”) has been eliminated or supplemented with visually-hidden context text.
- Tables: Data tables use <th> elements with scope attributes and <caption> elements where applicable.
