This statement applies to Global Law Lists.org™ (“Global Law Lists”, “we”), operated by Weblaya Digital Bhutan, Thimphu, Kingdom of Bhutan, and to the website at globallawlists.org.

01Our commitment

#

We believe access to legal information should not depend on ability. We continually work to ensure that every visitor — regardless of device, browser, or assistive technology — can find and read the lawyers, law firms, and insights published on this platform.

02Conformance target

#

We target conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA. Our pages are designed and checked against its success criteria; where a criterion cannot yet be fully met, we describe it under “Known limitations” below.

03Measures we have taken

#
  • A “skip to main content” link so keyboard users can bypass the navigation.
  • Links, buttons, menus and forms can be used with a keyboard, with a visible focus indicator.
  • Buttons, links and other controls are sized for touch, with targets of at least 44 by 44 pixels on our main pages.
  • Text and interface labels are checked against a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1.
  • One main heading per page, with headings in a logical order, and semantic landmarks and accessible names on search fields and interactive controls.
  • Support for the “reduce motion” system setting — animations and count-up effects are suppressed for visitors who request it.
  • Descriptive alternative text on meaningful images.

04Known limitations

#

Some listing content, images and documents are supplied by members, and older submissions in particular may not include complete alternative text or well-structured headings. Where we identify such gaps we work with the member to correct them. Maps on firm profiles use third-party map tiles and Google Maps, which may not be fully usable with a keyboard or screen reader; the firm’s address is always given as text as well. Some older pages that have not yet been redesigned may not meet every criterion.

05Feedback & contact
