No inspector can stop a lawsuit from being filed—but a CASp inspection provides "Qualified Defendant" status under California law. This means if you're sued, you get early mediation rights and reduced statutory damages (from $4,000+ down to potentially $1,000). The inspection report serves as proof you acted in good faith to address accessibility. It's not immunity, but it's significant legal protection.

The on-site inspection typically takes 2-4 hours depending on property size. For standard inspections, you'll receive your full report within 7 business days. If you're in escrow or facing a deadline, our Deal Accelerator service provides same-day preliminary findings and a complete report within 72 hours.

Yes—this is where my construction background makes a difference. Unlike inspectors who only identify violations, I provide cost-to-cure estimates based on actual construction experience. You'll get contractor-ready scopes of work with realistic budget ranges, not just a list of problems. This helps you plan remediation and negotiate with tenants or sellers.

Healthcare facilities face unique ADA challenges: gurney clearances, accessible exam rooms, radiation shielding doors that must also be operable, and OSHPD/HCAI oversight. Having spent 10 years building UCLA hospitals, I understand these constraints intimately. I know which fixes require OSHPD approval and which can be done as general maintenance—saving you months of regulatory delays.

Most properties have violations—that's normal and expected. The CASp report documents current conditions and prioritizes fixes by legal risk and cost. Getting inspected doesn't create liability; the violations already exist. What the inspection does is give you a roadmap to fix them systematically and proof that you're actively addressing compliance.

New construction should be built to code, but mistakes happen. I've found ADA violations in buildings that passed final inspection. More importantly, a CASp report provides Qualified Defendant protection even for new buildings. For healthcare projects, I can review plans before construction to catch issues when they're cheap to fix—not after the concrete is poured.
