Top 6 Reasons to Obtain a CASp Report and Certification for Your Business

1. Business owners can be assured that their certified access specialist (CASp) has been tested and certified by the state as an expert in disability access laws.

2. A CASp certification ensures your business is in compliance with access standards, codes and regulations.

3. A CASp Evaluation Report provides your business tangible evidence that your business has obtained a CASp evaluation and is eligible for the additional protections afforded by SB 1608.

4. If you are ever sued, you must have a CASp evaluation report in order to be eligible to request a 90-stay of the lawsuit and an early evaluation conference. If you do not have a CASp inspection report, you will be barred from this benefit.

5. Businesses, whose structures have been CASp evaluated are eligible to request a window sign signifying they have been “CASp-Inspected”. The window sign will send a message that the business has taken proactive steps to comply with disability access laws and is not an easy target for lawyers seeking to earn quick money.

6. A CASp evaluation report eliminates the anxiety and worrying if your business is in compliance with access standards, codes and regulations.
