update: A judge just said he can NO longer file any lawsuits of any kind without the courts permission since he exaggerates his health and is a serial suer.
02/16/2021 - Just looked for update. Found article dated 01/11/2021 stating: A disbarred attorney, who continued to file hundreds of disability lawsuits on his own behalf, has been permanently blocked from filing new cases in Arizona’s federal court district without permission. Judge Diane Humetewa officially labeled Peter Strojnik a “vexatious litigant” in a scathing ruling that compared his lawsuits to legal extortion and stated that he “habitually over-exaggerates his injuries.”
What he did is actually legal, the way he did it with slime; but I repeat with emphasis, what he did was legal. The law was bad law, it was purposefully written that way so that the people are able to put pressure on the stores almost directly without having to get put off 4 months in years by bureaucrats and court systems.

Lawyers get disbarred for filling frivolous law suits. The defendants should get together and file a class action against these lawyers. If they don't sue and settle they will be targeted again. There are several lawyers who are beginning to base their practices on doing this exact work.
As an older paraplegic I am happy that legislation like the ADA was passed in my lifetime. However those who abuse its provisions like Peter Strojnik and 'drive by ADA lawyers' really disrupt the meaning of the law. After years of being regarded as a 2nd class citizen ('oh, we'll just carry you up the stairs', 'we can't accomodate people like you') these people are disgusting. When I became a para, handicapped parking spaces were non existent. Today, laws like the ADA and social awareness have changed the attitudes of most towards the disabled but these vultures really give the ADA a bad name,
As a medically retired fireman who also beat stage four cancer I personally want to spend as much time as I can making him disabled to all of the things on his lawsuits so he can see what kind of paint we live in real life and the damage she’s doing to real disabled people.
You need a 1.5 degree angle for water drainage. If the ground is level then if it rains and then freezes over, it would be a much greater hazard to everyone not only disabled people.
ADA needs to change. And the biggest change should be that any lawsuits or demands go through an arbitrator and, if the arbitrator says "no" the complainant pays for their services. If "yes" then the business is ordered to fix the problem, an NOT pay the complainant even one dime.
@@Censoredbyfscists You shouldn't guess because you are really bad at it. Your reply demonstrates a lack of thinking and knowledge of the law. I'll give you one reason. It is a myth that arbitration is better than the judicial system. Oh, here's another alternative! How about making the amount a plaintiff can recover lower? The telemarketer law limits recovery to $500-$1500 per violation. It is enough to justify going to small-claims court, but not enough to be excessive. Allowing individuals who have been harmed to collect damages has been a part of the enforcement schemes of many laws over the past 50-100 years.
There’s should be a law that only disabled patrons can sue a place that violated their needs to access the place. Disabled people must have proof they went to that place.
Alot of these people need paid back. This is extortion and harassment. He needs to learn how to live off disability income like every one else in his situation. He is a leach .
That "organization" "Advocate for Individuals with Disabilities, LLC" strikes me as very shady. An advocacy group that is an LLC? LLCs are a form of partnership which means that it has owners who can take the profits. Advocacy groups are usually non-profit or not-for-profit corporations.
They need to make a law that lists people who can't file suits for shotgun lawsuits - disbar them permanently in all states and the people who claim to be the victims - have to pay triple whatever they sue for. Surely it can't be hard to find serial filers.
FYI Advocates for American Disabled Individuals Changes Its Name to Advocates for Individuals with Disabilities as a result of this. They are still out there
You can be sued for up to $20,000 if your website is not ADA compliant. So what did I do? I deleted my two websites since it was going to be to expensive to get them ADA compliant. I can always advertise on third party websites.
this "ADA laws" came in place to "HELP" the disabled, stands to reason able people need help to help the disabled, but lawsuits disable able people to help the disabled. one needs to help people help the disable THEN they may sue
You know it's scary, that guy at the ADZ office with that cheesy smile probably has a wife or at least a girlfriend. I feel really really bad for that woman. Hopefully his partner is a man. I could live with that
How the fck does people go around sueing private companies when the private business has the right to run their businesses however they want isnt it? These private businesses should just automatically trespass these individuals.
This is a scumbag lawyer & is the poster child for why many dislike lawyers. I can't believe someone hasn't just "taken care of him" on their own. He should be dealt with.
I love this guy I wish you would communicate with me I would love to go around the state we have no representation in South Carolina the judges the lawyers police are all on the same page good old boys is real it is very real if you get a lawyer you must get one out of state the ones in state are beholden to the state they're not beholding to the defendant or accused or the client...
Obsessive compulsive much? He’s probably a bit more disabled…just give the straight jacket material to a tailor along with the State-Approved documents detailing the exact specifications. Honestly an issued one ought suffice (no use of hands, etc.) but this guy’s seems crafty.
Personally as a disabled person I think it's great, I'm not sure about the methods but when I fell at Walmart in a disability parking spot that had the concrete 1" off the ground after they patched some kind of frozen concrete and didn't even check it, I went airbound and my back is still hurting, a total stranger came from their car and rushed to my aid. When I asked the manager, he didn't give a damn and I checked the Internet and saw Walmart can damn sure avoid lawsuits with all their attorneys. I even contacted local Attorneys and they didn't care either.. I already have diagnosed MRI spine degenerative disease and was advised from my doctor if I have any car wrecks/accidents I can be permanently in a wheelchair. I even wrote to the Feds ADA in DC about it and they weren't interested either they weren't even willing to see I had proof from MRIs and neurologists report showing preexisting conditions. That concrete is still sitting there 1 or 2" off the ground, not level and somebody's gonna come along and hit it again and they're gonna go airbound just like I did and Walmart is just slipping by not giving a damn, by the way this is in Walmart, Galax Virginia. I think it's about time all of us with disabilities go after these son of a bitches who don't give a damn about our health. Get them! Civil lawsuits can be won. Walmart recently lost a Civil suit from a customer injured, losing her leg! Just in last 7 days in news.
He needs to be given the opportunity to check out the ADA accommodations in prison.
in a paraplegic wheelchair
He should be arrested. Put him in jail for no less than 5 years. Take his bank accounts and charge him with extortion.
I love how they got back at the Advocates for Disability group. Empty desks, only 2 people there, sign of a sham operation. Well played News ABC15!
i thought it looked strange that an office, in the middle of the day, has NO WORKERS!!!!

Serial sewer too.
That great news
Lol 😂 great news he finally got lil bit bit of what he deserves

Makes one wonder why he hasn't been charged with fraud tho!
Why wasn’t he put in jail? He extorted money
AOC is his attorney

There are many of these types of lawyers and for some rain there is no action taken on them
When a attorney gets destroyed by the news guy! 😂😂😂😂😂
Great to find a news station really. Doing good for the public

“Fake news”.
Yup, told me everything I needed to know.
As a medically retired fireman who also beat stage four cancer I personally want to spend as much time as I can making him disabled to all of the things on his lawsuits so he can see what kind of paint we live in real life and the damage she’s doing to real disabled people.
The fact that's he has been doing it so much means he's succesfull enough to keep on doing it. He's obviously doing it for the money.
goes to show how IMPOTENT courts really are in changing behaviour.
His family is very proud of him
The guy needs prison time.
This man is crazy!
Someone needs to go after him for filing false disability claims!
Would any like to guess which political party he's in?
He would change his colors in a NY minute if it meant more money.
Fake news lawyer
Leave it to other lawyers to come up with a 1.48 degree angle for a parking spot.
You need a 1.5 degree angle for water drainage. If the ground is level then if it rains and then freezes over, it would be a much greater hazard to everyone not only disabled people.
@@robertwillis4061 then it should be 1.5, not 1.48.
Someone is going to get angry and this guy will end up really disabled
He deserves jail time! Why does the state keep wasting resources?
Time to flip burgers....
Go! Go! Go! ABC15!!!!

And the biggest change should be that any lawsuits or demands go through an arbitrator and, if the arbitrator says "no" the complainant pays for their services.
If "yes" then the business is ordered to fix the problem, an NOT pay the complainant even one dime.
So there will be nothing but risk for anyone who finds a legit problem. Your "fix" will not improve the situation.
@@RCFrizz if the problem is legit then the arbitrator will rule in their favor. His idea has merit. You don't like it because it's fair I guess.
@@Censoredbyfscists You shouldn't guess because you are really bad at it. Your reply demonstrates a lack of thinking and knowledge of the law.

It is enough to justify going to small-claims court, but not enough to be excessive. Allowing individuals who have been harmed to collect damages has been a part of the enforcement schemes of many laws over the past 50-100 years.
perhaps if somehow he got severely beaten up and disabled to MATCH the claims it may give justification for the lawsuits?
put him in jail.
Sick people.
There’s should be a law that only disabled patrons can sue a place that violated their needs to access the place. Disabled people must have proof they went to that place.
That disbarred lawyer is a complete clown. This is very disgusting. He should be locked up in jail for this kind of behavior.
Alot of these people need paid back. This is extortion and harassment. He needs to learn how to live off disability income like every one else in his situation. He is a leach .
Con man with a Lawyer's degree 🤔 ironic 🤣
I'm coming for you Peter and your family

Over 5 years at this and there's no ammendments to the legislation...
They need to make a law that lists people who can't file suits for shotgun lawsuits - disbar them permanently in all states and the people who claim to be the victims - have to pay triple whatever they sue for. Surely it can't be hard to find serial filers.
So plaintiffs want to avoid the cost of hiring a lawyer but if they called his bluff, HE would have to hire a lawyer.
As long as he has permission to sue he doesn't need to hire an attorney he can represent himself even though he's no longer an attorney
damn the saga continues!!
FYI Advocates for American Disabled Individuals Changes Its Name to Advocates for Individuals with Disabilities as a result of this. They are still out there
how is he filing a lawsuit when he is not disabled?? ..... i honestly think jail time will be the only thing stopping this scammy lawyer LOL
Disbarred
ABC15, sue him for slander for calling you fake news.
You can be sued for up to $20,000 if your website is not ADA compliant. So what did I do? I deleted my two websites since it was going to be to expensive to get them ADA compliant. I can always advertise on third party websites.
This is the problem with goverment programs like this. They only grow more and more demanding and oppressive.
this "ADA laws" came in place to "HELP" the disabled,
stands to reason able people need help to help the disabled,
but lawsuits disable able people to help the disabled.
one needs to help people help the disable THEN they may sue
Just ignore him what's he going to do, sue you?
If he was in my country his lisence would have been cancelled by now.
You know it's scary, that guy at the ADZ office with that cheesy smile probably has a wife or at least a girlfriend. I feel really really bad for that woman. Hopefully his partner is a man. I could live with that
Lol wow they need to be sue

buseineeses get a restraining order against him not to set foot on the property and if he does you got him
Y’all should left that man alone it looks like 😂
That guy needs to go to prison and share a cell with Big "Butt buster" Jones, and see how he walks when he gets out after ten years of it.
Hmmm. My lawyer, Louisville slugger would like to have a word witht this lawyer. 🤣
Why is this guys actions not criminal??
This is a scumbag lawyer & is the poster child for why many dislike lawyers. I can't believe someone hasn't just "taken care of him" on their own. He should be dealt with.
he's disbarred? Why isn't he in jail?

Stroynnik reminds me of an old Nazi war criminal. It's never his fault.

Only in america....
If these people are not complying with the ADA, then they should be sued.
hahahahhahaha
