Schedule Your Initial Consultation Today

Fill out the form below and give us a brief description of your legal issue. Please note that we do charge a fee for the initial consultation.

While this website provides general information, it does not constitute legal advice. The best way to get guidance on your specific legal issue is to contact a lawyer. To schedule a meeting with an attorney, please call the firm or complete the intake form below.

Colorado Employee Advocates is a law firm that litigates plaintiff employment law claims and provides advice to employees. Please feel free to call our office or submit your information via the form below.

If your legal situation is a situation for which we believe we may be able to provide assistance, we will offer you a confidential legal consultation so we can learn about you and your unique situation, provide you with an analysis of your legal claims, give you legal and practical advice, and discuss ways in which we may be able to offer representation.

Colorado Employee Advocates can sometimes offer to take your case on a contingency fee basis, meaning that if we take your case, you owe us nothing unless we are able to recover for you.

However, except in very rare circumstances, we are not able to offer free consultations. Thus, if we offer you a consultation, you will need to pay for the attorney’s time, which can vary based on the attorney you meet with and the amount of time required for your particular situation.
