Web Accessibility Explained

    Understanding WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility standards for professional websites

    What is Web Accessibility?

    Web accessibility ensures that websites are usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA standard is the internationally recognized benchmark for accessible web design.

    Why Accessibility Matters for Legal Professionals

    Equal Access to Justice

    Legal services should be accessible to all members of society. An accessible website ensures that people with disabilities can access information about your services and contact your practice, supporting the fundamental principle of equal access to justice.
