Colorado Employment Lawyers for Employees
About The Firm
Livelihood Law, LLC is dedicated to improving employment conditions for all workers in Colorado. If you are working in Colorado, you are entitled to a fair and equitable workplace, no matter an employee’s disability, race, creed, color, sex, sexual orientation, religion, age, national origin, ancestry, or because of a current or intended marriage to another employee. We know that employers fail to abide by laws designed to protect employees, and that employees often don’t know what their rights are. Livelihood Law helps those workers fight back.
As experienced and compassionate Colorado Employment lawyers, we provide counseling, advocacy, and litigation services to employees facing workplace violations related to discrimination, harassment, retaliation, contract or commission disputes, wrongful termination, and wrongfully withheld unemployment benefits. Livelihood Law, LLC represents employees before the Colorado Civil Rights Commission, the Colorado Department of Labor & Employment, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and Colorado state and federal courts.
