My practice focuses on the defense of Colorado state agencies, institutions of higher education, and employees in state and federal court employment litigation. I regularly defend clients before federal courts, state courts and government agencies. I have participated as first and second chair in half a dozen jury trials. I have successfully defended clients against claims brought under the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Americans with Disabilities Act, Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Family and Medical Leave Act, Fair Labor Standards Act and Fair Housing Act. I also advise clients on numerous labor and employment issues, including employment policies, compliance with wage and hour laws, settlement offers and mediation.In addition to my practice, I have authored several articles, which have been published in the Colorado Lawyer and DRI’s For the Defense, for which she received the G. Duffield Smith Outstanding Publication Award. I routinely lecture on various topics affecting attorneys and the practice of law, including ethics, privileges, technology, and evidence.
