Portrait of Zayd Qureshi, a bearded man with glasses in a blue blazer seated at a table

Zayd Qureshi

Staff attorney

Zayd takes the disability access cases, and visits the building before he writes a word.

He studied architecture before law school and still carries a tape measure to site visits. A doorway that's two inches too narrow is a fact, and he likes facts that fit in a letter.

Measure first, then write

Zayd goes to the place before he writes the letter. He measures the door, tries the elevator and reads the sign, so the letter says exactly what has to change.

Most access cases end with a fix, and a specific letter makes a fix easier to agree to.
