@daveshaw I'm not a lawyer, but I seem to recall hearing that someone could hire their own attorney to pursue an ADA violation. In fact, there was a recent one, I believe in Denver, where the person ended up hiring his own attorney to pursue the facility. My recollection is that he had asked for CART and they refused, but he took them to courtand won! I know there is someone who has participated in the past on this site that would have more details. Perhaps they will see this and respond.

@h2h I hope they see it and respond. The only way a lawyer would take it was if it was on a contingency basis.
When I checked lawsuits regarding violations by venues or restaurants were not established enough to go to court on and certainly costly to front the legal bills.
HHLA would be the vehicle to take that kind of action and contrary to what Julie thinks they appear toothless.
I would love to have someone prove me wrong.
