Unlocking Justice

Unlocking Justice (2012). Lawyers, health professionals, and aspiring ADA advocates will use this work to meet re-licensing requirements elevating readers' ethical compliance with ADA mandates. This book sets a much needed standard of care under the Americans with Disabilities Amendments Act of 2008 for ensuring equal treatment in the judicial system for those with functional impairments. In searching for a standard for equitable treatment for Litigants with Disabilities (LWD) I found none that consistently assure fair and equal access to the judicial system for them. NO organization, regulatory body, or professional ethical requirements among legal and health professionals assure that persons with impairments receive a fair unbiased experience in the courts. No profession involved in the justice system seems to be fully aware of the need to take a firm stand against the burgeoning health menace that the legal system now represents for litigants especially with invisible disabilities.
