What Is a CASp Survey?
A CASp consultant is a certified access specialist with specific expertise in accessibility standards for construction set by state and federal governments. These experts are certified by the Division of State Architect. They have a license to inspect public facilities and grant “qualified defendant” status to their clients if required.
The certified access specialist program was created to help property owners be proactive about facility accessibility to avoid damaging lawsuits. A CASp inspection report and survey are optional but grant project managers the opportunities to receive education about their compliance issues and fix them within their budget.
Avoid The Danger of ADA Lawsuits
The California Senate Bill 1608 was created in response to the rising number of lawsuits that cost California businesses tens of thousands of dollars. A CASp inspection in Los Angeles will give you legal protection. Your CASp inspection report will be your legal proof of compliance and give you “qualified defendant” status if there is a construction-related ADA or accessibility lawsuit.

This status is legally advantageous because you can request a court stay and an early evaluation conference. Its financial benefits include the reduction of statutory damages by thousands of dollars depending on the circumstances.
