COLORADO SPRINGS DORA COMPLAINT DEFENSE LAWYER

The Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA) has a great deal of power and control over your life and career. Unfortunately, those who use your services and benefit from your professional licensure yield an even greater power through the formal complaint process. When a disgruntled patient, client, or employee files a complaint against you as a professional, DORA’s regulatory board’s inquiry may threaten your professional license and livelihood before you’re even aware there was a grievance. As you are aware, telling the full story to clear your name without legal representation present can put you, your license, and your future in grave danger.

At the Law Offices of Murphy and Price, LLP, we have been defending licensed professionals in Colorado Springs, on Fort Carson, and the surrounding southern Front Ranges areas in their DORA complaint cases for more than two decades. We are well versed in the regulatory process and can help protect your professional license and livelihood. Contact us for a complimentary consultation today.

DORA COMPLAINTS

In Colorado, the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA) errs on the side of protecting the people. What this means for you as a licensed professional is if someone does not like the way you do business, your livelihood may be on the line. As a licensed professional working for an employer, your license, nor your job, are protected. When you are facing a DORA complaint or grievance against your license, you need the help of an experienced DORA complaint lawyer to help protect you and your future.

DORA complaints can often be resolved by filing a thorough and sound written response to the regulatory board. This first response solidifies your position to the Board and can be the difference between a dismissal of the complaint and a lengthy investigation as a part of a full-blown formal hearing. An improper or poorly written response to a DORA complaint can result in you being required to defend your professional license against the attorney general’s office.

At the Law Offices of Murphy and Price, we have several decades worth of experience navigating the complexities of the Department of Regulatory Agencies’ various policies. We can guide you through responding to a complaint against your license and represent you at a formal hearing if there is one.

The Two Types of DORA Complaints

In Colorado, there are two types of complaints that individuals can file with a DORA division. These two types of DORA complaints are complaints against a licensed businesses or professionals and charges of discrimination. Learn more about these two types of DORA complaints below.

Complaint Against a Licensed Business or Professional

The Department of Regulatory Agencies has over a hundred regulatory and advisory bodies designed to oversee DORA complaints in various industries. The department has all of these bodies listed on their government website, and they cover everything from Accounting to Veterinary Medicine. Individuals and businesses can file a complaint with DORA against a company to ensure fair customer-business treatment and to promote a fair and competitive business environment in Colorado.

Charge of Discrimination

Cases of Discrimination are taken very seriously by the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies. These cases are enforced by the Colorado Civil Rights Division (CCRD) and covered under the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act (CADA). CADA strictly prohibits any kind of discrimination based on protected class in places of public accomodation, housing, and employment. Charges of discrimination are throughly investigated, and accused businesses should always seek out legal advice from DORA law experts like Murphy & Price LLP.

Protect Your Professional License

Anyone can file a DORA complaint against your professional license including patients, clients, their family members, a community resident, your co-worker, your employer, or anyone in the general public. While illegitimate or frivolous complaints may not impact your career or be worthy of a formal investigation, the right claims —fraud, misrepresentation, abuse, theft, discrimination, etc.— can have you fighting for your life. With your hard work and future on the line, you need a team of qualified DORA lawyers on your side to defend your professional license and career. From responding to the complaint to being present for the investigation and formal DORA hearing, the legal associates at the Law Offices of Murphy and Price, LLP., are here for you.
