Law schools that are gay friendly and accessible for disabilities?

I'm a college senior and I'm planning on going to law school. I took my LSATs but have not got my scores back yet. I'm queer and I have physical issues to the point where I cannot go up a flight of stairs on a bad day. Does anyone have recommendations for law schools that are both queer friendly and accessible?

Update:

I go to Syracuse now and there are places in the law school that are not accesible to walkies. Wheelchair lifts are useless to us who walk but cannot take stairs.

    I am a retired lawyer.

    It would be a rare law school which did not have sufficient elevators to be in ADA compliance. Every floor in my law school (Boalt Hall) was reachable by elevator in the 1960s!

    Whether a law school is "friendly" to people with a particular orientation is not really an issue. A law school is a professional school and is very different from an undergraduate school. In general, law schools are very competitive places where people go to do specific work. The atmosphere is not very "friendly" to anyone. The most admired people are those who are the smartest and who work the hardest, whatever their orientation. I may not have addressed the exact issue on which you want information, but I hope I have given you some useful information nevertheless.
