Legal Question in Disability Law in Florida

I use portable oxygen with a conserving device at 2 liters per minute. I was forced to leave a bar, located inside, which allows patrons to smoke. A guest there complained that I was endangering her life. Do have recourse against the bartender and the absent owner whom I asked to speak with about this issue. I also called a nuber I was given t reach the owner however I was told that she wasn't in.

I would recommend you start at the website I have listed below. This is to the Department of Justice. They do not go after monetary damages for clients, but they do investigate claims and levy fines and sanctions if they found a business has violated one's rights given to them by the accessibility statutes.

If you wanted to attempt to obtain monetary damages for your claim, you would need to hire an ADA attorney in which we would be happy to discuss this matter with you further if this is the direction you chose to go in.

Hope this assist you in your matter.
