Represented defendants in case involving claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Rehabilitation Act, and the Fair Housing Act. The District Court granted defendants' motion to dismiss.

The Court concluded that the FHA forbids discrimination, not requests that will enable banks to apply uniform standards. Wigginton v. Bank of America, 770 F.3d 521 (7th Cir. 2014).
