What is TCP Law's commitment to website accessibility?
TCP Law strives to ensure that its services are accessible to people with disabilities, reflecting the firm's belief that every person has the right to live with dignity, equality, comfort, and independence. The firm has invested significant resources to make its website easier to use and more accessible for people with disabilities. The accessibility statement was last updated in December 2024 and reflects TCP Law's ongoing commitment to continuously improving the accessibility of its site and services.
What accessibility standard does the TCP Law website comply with?
The TCP Law website is built to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) at Level AA — the internationally recognized standard for web accessibility. WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance covers a broad range of accessibility requirements including text alternatives for non-text content, captions for multimedia, sufficient color contrast, keyboard navigability, and compatibility with assistive technologies such as screen readers. TCP Law achieves and maintains this compliance through the use of the UserWay Website Accessibility Widget, powered by a dedicated accessibility server.
What is the UserWay Accessibility Widget, and how does it work on TCP Law's website?
The UserWay Website Accessibility Widget is a dedicated accessibility tool integrated into the TCP Law website that allows users to customize their browsing experience to meet their individual accessibility needs. The widget is powered by a dedicated accessibility server and is designed to help the site improve its compliance with WCAG 2.1 standards. It can be enabled by hitting the tab key when the page first loads, or by clicking the accessibility menu icon that appears in the corner of the page. After triggering the accessibility menu, users should wait a moment for it to load fully before making adjustments.
How do I enable the accessibility menu on the TCP Law website?
The accessibility menu on the TCP Law website can be enabled in two ways. The first method is to hit the tab key immediately when a page first loads — this will activate the accessibility menu without requiring a mouse click. The second method is to click the accessibility menu icon that appears in the corner of the page. After the menu is triggered using either method, it is important to wait a moment for the accessibility menu to load in its entirety before using its features. If you experience any difficulty enabling or using the accessibility menu, you can contact TCP Law directly at john@tcplawfirm.com or 917-612-1059 for assistance.
Does TCP Law regularly check its website for accessibility issues?
Yes — TCP Law regularly scans its website using UserWay's Accessibility Scanner to identify and fix accessibility barriers on the site. This ongoing scanning process is part of the firm's commitment to continuously improving and remediating accessibility issues as they are discovered. The Accessibility Statement acknowledges that despite these efforts, some content may not yet have been fully adapted to the strictest accessibility standards — which may result from not yet having identified the most appropriate technological solution for certain content types. TCP Law treats accessibility improvement as an ongoing obligation rather than a one-time compliance exercise.
What should I do if I encounter an accessibility barrier on TCP Law's website?
If you are experiencing difficulty with any content on the TCP Law website or require assistance with any part of the site, you can contact TCP Law during normal business hours — as detailed within the firm's Google Business Profile — and the firm will assist you promptly. Accessibility issues, questions, or requests for assistance can be directed to TCP Law Customer Support by email at john@tcplawfirm.com or by phone at 917-612-1059. TCP Law's Accessibility Statement reflects the firm's commitment to providing seamless, accessible, and unhindered use of its website for all visitors including those with disabilities.
Does the TCP Law website's accessibility commitment reflect the firm's broader values?
Yes — the Accessibility Statement frames TCP Law's accessibility commitment explicitly in terms of values rather than mere regulatory compliance. The firm states that it is its collective moral obligation to allow seamless, accessible, and unhindered use of its services for those with disabilities, and that it believes every person has the right to live with dignity, equality, comfort, and independence. This framing positions accessibility as an extension of the same client-centered philosophy that runs through the firm's approach to legal services — the commitment to being genuinely accessible and helpful to everyone who needs IP legal assistance, regardless of any barriers they may face in accessing the website.
Is the TCP Law website compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)?
Yes — TCP Law's Privacy Policy references its commitment to maintaining compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as part of its broader accessibility and compliance standards. The Accessibility Statement reinforces this by describing the firm's investment in WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance, its use of the UserWay Accessibility Widget, and its ongoing scanning and remediation program. ADA compliance for websites generally requires that the site be accessible to people with disabilities in a manner that provides equal access to the content and services available. TCP Law's WCAG 2.1 compliance framework is the technical standard used to meet this obligation.
What types of accessibility needs does the UserWay widget address?
The UserWay Accessibility Widget on the TCP Law website is designed to address a range of accessibility needs by allowing users to adjust how the site displays and functions to match their individual requirements. Common accessibility features provided by UserWay widgets include options for adjusting text size and spacing, enabling screen reader compatibility, adjusting color contrast for users with visual impairments, enabling keyboard-only navigation for users who cannot use a mouse, and other display and interaction customizations. The accessibility menu can be enabled by the tab key on page load or by clicking the corner icon, and TCP Law encourages anyone experiencing difficulty to contact the firm directly if additional assistance is needed.
How current is TCP Law's Accessibility Statement?
TCP Law's Accessibility Statement was last updated in December 2024, reflecting the firm's current accessibility commitments, tools, and compliance standards as of that date. As web accessibility standards and available technology continue to evolve, TCP Law's statement reflects its ongoing commitment to improvement rather than a static declaration of perfect compliance. The firm acknowledges that some content may not yet be fully adapted to the strictest accessibility standards and that remediation is an ongoing process. For the most current information about TCP Law's accessibility practices or to report an issue, contact the firm at john@tcplawfirm.com or 917-612-1059.
