Fair Housing & Public Accommodation

Willcox Savage’s Fair Housing and Public Accommodation Practice Group assists residential developers, property owners, and management companies throughout the country with a wide range of matters related to compliance with the Federal Fair Housing Act and similar state and local laws.

Our attorneys are frequently asked to defend developers, landlords, and management companies against allegations of housing discrimination filed with the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and similar local fair housing agencies.

We also vigorously defend clients faced with federal and state litigation involving allegations of housing discrimination on the basis of disability, race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, familial status, source of income, or other protected classifications.

Our Fair Housing Team also has substantial experience drafting and reviewing fair housing policies and procedures, and training leasing teams. This can include topics ranging from assistance animal accommodations, reasonable modifications, other accommodations, and conducting lawful tenant screenings.

In addition, Willcox Savage represents a variety of businesses and property owners in matters related to public accommodation and accessible design under the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Fair Housing Act and similar state and local laws.

While our team includes litigators with experience in Fair Housing cases, our passion is providing proactive consulting, training, and compliance services to help our clients minimize the risk of litigation.
