Have an Unemployment Claim in Denver, Colorado Springs, Aurora, Fort Collins or Lakewood? What is Misconduct Under Colorado Unemployment Law?

Although I am not able to provide legal advice on Colorado law, I am happy to pass along some basic legal principles I gleaned from researching the relevant law.  This task is made easier because my research has disclosed that unemployment claims in Colorado are rather similar to those in Pennsylvania in a number of important respects. For example, one is terminated for misconduct, one cannot get benefits.  However, just as in Pennsylvania, alleged poor performance is not deemed to be disqualifying misconduct under Colorado law.

In quit cases, the law in Colorado is similar to that in Pennsylvania where voluntary quits are concerned.  For example, a significant reduction in hours, work conditions or change in schedule occurring through no fault of your own may enable you to quit and get unemployment compensation.

The Hearing is the Key 

Colorado decides unemployment claims via a) an administrative claim process; b) a right to appeal from the administrative decision; and, most importantly, c) a Telephone Hearing before a Hearing Officer. Just as in Pennsylvania, having an attorney represent you at this all-important Hearing may be determinative to the outcome of your claim.

Subject of Discrimination?

Finally, Unemployment Hearings in Colorado, like those in Pennsylvania, can be fertile grounds for obtaining testimony under oath from employer witnesses - testimony that can later be used during the prosecution of claims for illegal discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination, etc.  An experienced attorney is essential to skillfully executing such a strategy.  Our Denver attorney frequently prosecutes such claims, and will be able to skillfully navigate you through any litigation process as needed.
