WH'O WE ARE
Dr. Karin Huffer
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
ADA Title II and Title III Specialist Founder and
Managing Member, LVAA, LLC
Dr.
Karin Huffer,
author of the groundbreaking book, Overcoming the Devastation of Legal Abuse Syndrome, has devoted over 20 years to researching, diagnosing, and
treating PTSD and other trauma disorders. She is an ADA
Title II and Title III Specialist, and has been an ADA Section
504 Consultant, working with schools, businesses, and the
judicial system to provide effective accommodations for those
who suffer from disabilities.
In
2008, Karin's extensive work led to the acknowledgement by the
ADA that our judicial system can and does cause traumatic stress
in those who seek civilized, fair, due process of law and
redress of grievances. Appalled by the lack of certified
ADA advocates available to assist the disabled in court, Dr.
Huffer developed a comprehensive ADA Advocate training and certification program which can be completed through webinars and online. She is Associate Professor at Kings University in Forensic
Psychology.
Dr. Huffer is the mother of two grown sons. She has had
extensive personal experience with the issues she has
identified.
LEGAL ABUSE SYNDROME font>(LAS) is a form of post traumatic
stress disorder (PTSD). It is a psychic injury, not a mental
illness. It is a personal injury that develops in individuals
assaulted by ethical violations, legal abuses, betrayals, and
fraud. Abuse of power and authority and a profound lack of
accountability in our courts have become rampant. More about Legal Abuse Syndrome

OUR MISSION is to ensure equal access to the judicial system, by
moving toward a social model over medical model for providing
accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
We
promote a fair court process with an attitude of inclusion and
tolerance. Our advocates enhance security, dignity and respect
for every person. We support the economy of the court by
improving communication, and acting as liaisons. LVAALLC helps
the courts to better assist and serve those with special needs
according to ADAAA mandates.
Our mission is affirmed by the universal declaration of human
rights, 1948, the convention on the elimination of
discrimination against women of 1979, The ABA Resolution of
2002, The Americans with Disabilities Act Titles II & III, of
1990, the ADAAA of 2008, and the International Treaty for the
Disabled of 2009.
HOW WE CANHELP
Litigants with disabilities feel that they are wrong or crazy
when their best efforts do not succeed in court. We at
LVAA are advocates, consultants, and expert witnesses serving
those who have suffered from ethical or legal abuses and who
need rational assistance in facing what will feel like a system
and life out of control.
• We design and communicate to the court ADA accommodations
for litigants with special needs;
• We advocate for the functionally impaired in court;
• We specialize in post traumatic stress disorder / legal
abuse syndrome;
• Cases involving traumatic stress related to domestic
violence.
