California takes ADA compliance very seriously; state law declares that any business that chooses to violate the act is also committing a civil rights violation. Therefore, a violator can expect to be fined a minimum of $4000, in addition to any legal costs they incur.
There are two options for filing an ADA complaint: Online. File a complaint by submitting a report on the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division website. Mail. Fill out and send the paper ADA Complaint Form (Regular Format | Large Format) or a letter containing the same information, to: U.S. Department of Justice.
All you need is a valid email address and a phone number. Once you have an account, call 800-884-1684. Our staff will associate your account with the complaint.

In general, to be entitled to an accommodation under the ADA, you must work for an employer with 15 or more employees (or a state or local government), you must be a person with a disability as defined in the ADA, and you must need the accommodation because of your disability.
