Website lawsuit early warning for US small businesses

420 website tracking lawsuits filed in US federal courts in the last 12 months, from court records updated daily.

What the scan finds, 1 of 3
Suitcast loads your pages the way a first-time visitor does and checks every request that leaves the browser before the cookie banner is answered against a catalog of 43 tracking scripts, from the Meta Pixel to session-replay tools, the ones named in California Invasion of Privacy Act complaints. You see the script, the page it fired on, and the millisecond it fired.
Requests before consent

Banner: none
9 trackers fired before consent. There was no banner to reject.
What the scan finds, 2 of 3
The same automated checks a plaintiff's expert runs first: images without descriptions, unlabeled form fields, empty links and buttons, low contrast, missing page language. Each failure is weighted by how often it appears in website accessibility complaints, and each comes with a fix written for the person who owns the site, naming where the setting lives in Shopify, WordPress or Squarespace.
Links have no text
5 pages, 10 instances
Some links on the page have no text, usually because they are an icon or a logo with nothing behind it. A screen reader reads 'link' with no destination, so the visitor cannot tell where it goes. Fix: add text to the link, or add alt text to the image inside it (for example 'Home' on the logo, 'Instagram' on the social icon) in your page editor.
Text is hard to read against its background
5 pages, 16 instances
Some text on the page is too light or too close in color to its background. Visitors with low vision or color blindness, and anyone reading on a phone in sunlight, cannot make it out. Fix: darken the text color or lighten the background in your theme's color settings until there is a clear difference; a free contrast checker will tell you when it passes.
Hidden content can still be reached by keyboard
1 page, 1 instance
Some content on the page is hidden from screen readers but can still be reached with the Tab key, often a closed menu or pop-up. A screen reader user lands on invisible controls and hears nothing. Fix: ask your developer to make hidden content fully unreachable until it is opened.
Lists contain items that are not list items
5 pages, 5 instances
Some lists on the page contain content that is not a proper list item, often from a menu or product grid built by a theme. A screen reader announces the wrong number of items or reads them out of order. Fix: ask your developer or theme provider to correct the list markup.

Your findings are matched against a daily-updated record of federal website lawsuits: how many businesses in your state were sued in the last 30 days, how many in your industry in 90, which of those complaints name issues your site has right now, and which firms filed them. Every count carries its window and links to the court record.

What you get after the first scan
A site changes when a plugin updates, a marketer adds a tag, or a theme is swapped. The free scan is a photograph; the weekly re-scan is the thing that catches the tag someone added on a Tuesday and the filing that landed in your state on a Thursday.
Updated daily from court records
A handful of plaintiff firms and repeat plaintiffs file most website lawsuits, and they file against businesses like yours in batches. Suitcast tracks every firm and every serial plaintiff so you can see who is active in your state this month.
Most owners learn about website lawsuits from the letter. Here is what changes when you learn a few months earlier.
