Accessibility statement

Our commitment

This firm intends for its website to be usable by everyone, including people who browse with a screen reader, navigate by keyboard only, need larger text, or have reduced motion enabled. The site is built and maintained against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA.

Accessibility is not a one-time task. This statement describes what has actually been implemented rather than claiming perfect conformance, and it will be updated as the site changes.

What has been implemented

• Text contrast is calculated against the WCAG relative-luminance formula rather than estimated. Body and secondary text meet the 4.5:1 minimum on every background used.
• Every page has exactly one h1, and headings descend without skipping levels, so screen-reader users can navigate by heading.
• Every image carries descriptive alternative text and explicit width and height.
• Keyboard focus is always visible. The focus outline is never removed, and a “Skip to main content” link is the first item on every page.
• Each form field has an associated label, and required fields are marked natively.
• Motion respects prefers-reduced-motion: scroll reveals, hover zooms and counters all stop when the operating system requests reduced motion.
• Interactive targets are at least 48 pixels tall, including the links in the mobile navigation bar.
• There is no auto-advancing carousel, no flashing content, and no audio. The video on the home page has no audio track at all.
• Frequently asked questions use native details elements, so their content is reachable by keyboard and present in the page even when collapsed.

Known limitations

The map on the Contact page is embedded from OpenStreetMap and is controlled by that service rather than by this firm. If the map is difficult to use, the office address is written out in text directly above it, and a link opens the same location in Google Maps.

Some articles in Legal Insights link to outside news sites. Those sites are not controlled by this firm and their accessibility may differ.

Telling us about a barrier

If any part of this website prevents you from getting the information you need, please contact the office and describe the problem. We will help you get that information another way — by telephone, by email, or in person — and we will work to fix the underlying issue.
