ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT


Bartol Law Firm, P.C. is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards to guarantee we provide equal access to all of our clients.

 

Conformance Status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Bartol Law Firm, P.C.'s website is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content may not fully conform to the accessibility standard, though we have taken extensive technical measures to ensure core functionalities, such as navigation and information retrieval, are accessible.

 

Technical Measures

To ensure a highly accessible environment, we have implemented the following technical measures:

 

  • Keyboard Navigation: Ensuring all interactive elements, including navigation menus, image carousels, and contact forms, are fully navigable using a keyboard without focus traps.
  • Screen Reader Compatibility: Providing descriptive ARIA labels for social icons and third-party links, implementing a semantic heading hierarchy (H1 through H3), and ensuring all images have unique, descriptive alternative text.
  • Visual Design: Optimizing color contrast ratios for text, buttons, and overlays to meet or exceed the required 4.5:1 threshold against varying backgrounds.

 

Legal Disclaimer

While we strive to adhere to the accepted guidelines and standards for accessibility and usability, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website at all times. We will continue to evaluate our site to maintain a standard of ADA compliance.
