The lawyers are generally not acting on existing complaints from people with disabilities. Instead, they identify local businesses, like bagel shops and delis, that are not in compliance with the law, and then aggressively recruit plaintiffs from advocacy groups for people with disabilities.
The plaintiffs typically collect $500 for each suit, and each plaintiff can be used several times over. The lawyers, meanwhile, make several thousands of dollars, because the civil rights law entitles them to legal fees from the noncompliant businesses.

Daily Horoscope for June 18
Gemini
Make the most of your social life today, especially if that means gathering some of your favourite people around you. You're in a very sunny mood and you're looking for a good time. You're also feeling rather active and will enjoy playing a competitive sport or going dancing at the end of the evening. It's a day for letting your hair down!
