Filings by month, last 12 months

Updated Sep 14, 2026How cases are verified

The short answer

Suitcast counts 834 website accessibility lawsuits in the last 12 months and 420 website tracking lawsuits in the last 12 months in US courts, verified from federal court records and sourced state filings. The most active plaintiff firm is Equal Access Law Group PLLC. Counts refresh daily and are a floor, because state-court coverage is partial.

Across the country

Where website lawsuits are filed

Tiles are shaded by verified filings on record for each state over the last 12 months. Accessibility suits count toward the court's or the defendant's state, tracking suits toward the defendant's state.

Questions owners ask

What is counted, why some states are low, and how to cite the numbers.
What counts as a website lawsuit here?
Two kinds of federal filing: Americans with Disabilities Act cases that claim a website is not usable by people with disabilities, and California Invasion of Privacy Act cases that claim tracking scripts on a website recorded visitors without consent. Only cases verified as website cases are counted; physical-access ADA suits and criminal wiretap matters are excluded.
Why is my state's number low or zero?
Federal website accessibility suits concentrate in a few venues, mainly Illinois, New York, Florida, Wisconsin and Indiana, and about three in four tracking suits are filed in California against companies anywhere. A state page shows national numbers next to the local ones whenever the local count is under five, so the page is still useful.
How current are the numbers?
Federal filings are pulled from CourtListener every morning and the pages rebuild daily. In the last 12 months the dataset holds 834 verified accessibility filings and 420 verified tracking filings. Attorney and firm names sometimes arrive a few days after filing and are refreshed for two weeks.
Can I cite these numbers?
Yes. The data page explains the method, the limits and the preferred citation line, and offers the aggregates as JSON. Every case row on every page links to the court record or the curated source.
