Twelve years ago, the NFB asked him to assist in devising and executing a strategy of education, negotiation and litigation to make mainstream technology accessible to the blind. Pursuant to that strategy, he has sought, among other things, to increase the accessibility of the Internet with suits against America Online and Target, and successful negotiations with Amazon, eBay and Travelocity; to make consumer kiosks, such as ATMs, accessible through suits against Diebold, Inc., Cardtronics, Inc., and a number of banks; to make voting accessible through suits against states and counties; and, to make mainstream digital book systems accessible through suits against educational institutions that deployed the Kindle e-book reader. Most recently, he secured a victory in the Ninth Circuit assuring that blind test takers who use screen reader software as their primary reading method are entitled to use such software in high stakes testing. Before setting up his private practice in 1982, he was an Assistant U.S. Attorney for the District of Maryland for six years where he prosecuted white-collar crimes.<br clear=all></span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:15.0pt'><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Jonathan Lazar <o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:15.0pt'><!--[if gte vml 1]><v:shape id="Picture_x0020_2" o:spid="_x0000_s1028" type="#_x0000_t75" alt="Description: Description: photo of Jonathan Lazar" style='position:absolute;margin-left:0;margin-top:0;width:60.15pt;height:68pt;z-index:-251657728;visibility:visible;mso-wrap-style:square;mso-width-percent:0;mso-height-percent:0;mso-wrap-distance-left:0;mso-wrap-distance-top:0;mso-wrap-distance-right:0;mso-wrap-distance-bottom:0;mso-position-horizontal:left;mso-position-horizontal-relative:text;mso-position-vertical:top;mso-position-vertical-relative:line;mso-width-percent:0;mso-height-percent:0;mso-width-relative:page;mso-height-relative:page' o:allowoverlap="f">
