ADA lawsuit attorney still targeting businesses
By Tim Day, News10
STOCKTON — On the very day Stockton business owners were invited to a workshop on how to avoid ADA-related lawsuits, the attorney responsible for filing so many of those lawsuits was across town shopping, and reluctantly, interviewed.
Scott Johnson doesn’t deny filing thousands of lawsuits against businesses with disability access issues. Even if those businesses make changes to meet the Americans with Disabilities Act, Johnson also alleges personal damages into the many thousands of dollars.
Johnson was insistent on getting into his van and avoiding News10 questions when spotted Wednesday, but he offered a few comments.
Johnson has targeted South Lake Tahoe and North Shore businesses in the past.
