Accessibility Statement

Introduction

TOCHTROP & ASSOCIATES PC is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards to ensure that our website is accessible to all users, regardless of ability.

We believe that everyone should have equal access to information and services, and we strive to provide an inclusive online experience for all visitors to our website.

Accessibility Features

We have implemented the following accessibility features to ensure our website is usable by everyone:

Semantic HTML

Our website uses semantic HTML5 markup throughout all pages. This includes proper heading hierarchy (h1 through h6), landmark regions (header, nav, main, footer), and meaningful structure that helps assistive technologies understand and navigate our content effectively.

Keyboard Navigation

All interactive elements on our website are fully accessible via keyboard. Users can navigate through menus, links, buttons, and form controls using standard keyboard commands. Focus indicators are visible to help users understand their current position on the page. The tab order follows a logical sequence that matches the visual layout.

Alt Text for Images

All meaningful images on our website include descriptive alternative text (alt attributes) that convey the content and purpose of the image. Decorative images are marked with empty alt attributes to be skipped by screen readers, ensuring a smoother navigation experience.

Color Contrast

We have designed our website with sufficient color contrast ratios to ensure readability for users with visual impairments. Text and interactive elements meet or exceed the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA contrast requirements, with a minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text.

Form Labels and Controls

All form inputs have associated labels that are properly connected to their controls. Required fields are clearly marked, and form validation errors are announced to screen reader users. Form instructions and error messages are descriptive and helpful.

Our website is designed to be compatible with the following assistive technologies:

• Screen readers (including JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver)
