Innovative provides the expertise needed to interpret and comply with the sometimes confusing and complicated accessibility laws. Accessibility to people with disabilities is not only a code requirement, but a civil rights law.  Therefore, the cost and time associated with non-compliance can be extremely costly not only for design professionals, but also for owners and developers. Innovative’s team can provide valuable insight and cost saving strategies to fully comply with accessibility requirements, while providing a more design focused and user experience solution. Innovative’s services related to accessibility include existing site assessments and transition plans, preliminary design/planning, construction document review, construction observation to ensure compliance, and expert witness/defense services.
