Colorado Bankruptcy Laws - State Bar Association
The state bar provides contact information for city and county bars associations that maintain
local listings of lawyers who specialize in Colorado bankruptcy law. The state bar also provides instructions for
filing grievances against lawyers. In general, all lawyers are governed by professional rules of conduct. These
rules specifically regulate disclosures which lawyers must provide clients regarding fees, fee agreements, and
work performed. Also, a reasonable standard of care must be honored by all attorney while representing clients. Should work
performed fall below a reasonable standard of care, attorneys may be subject to grievances, civil liability, or
both.

The most common grievance filed is based upon failure to return phone calls. State bar associations routinely
sanction or reprimand attorneys who do return client phone calls. State Bar rules require all lawyers to
adequately inform clients about case progress, new developments, and changed circumstances. A violation of this
duty, if no actual harm is caused to the client, usually results in a private reprimand for a first offense. An
offense based on negligent behavior which directly harms a client may be actionable in a private civil lawsuit
for damages.
