About the Firm

We fight for the right of disabled people to access all aspects of society.

We participate in complex impact litigation and class actions in state and federal courts throughout the United States, usually involving novel issues around access for blind and other disabled people and often involving emerging technologies. TRE Legal Practice frequently works to resolve issues through structured negotiations, advocacy, and targeted assistance with the goal of helping our clients—while also pushing for systemic change that will benefit everyone.
