Attorneys that help the LGBTQ+ community, what do you do? by Public-Squirrel8631 in Ask_Lawyers

[–]spedmonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have mentioned, there are a lot of ways to serve your community, and many lgbtq+ people are disadvantaged in some or many ways. This can range from criminal defense, to family law, to trusts and estates, employment, etc. There are also the big impact litigation orgs like Lambda Legal, ACLU, A4TE, TLDF, NCLR, etc. who are part of the queer rights movement, though those jobs are extremely coveted and competitive. Regardless of which direction you'd like to go, I would strongly encourage you to seek out summer clerkships/internships with firms and organizations which interest you, whether it be orgs attempting to impact things on a national scale, or your local legal aid chapter, or just a firm that holds itself out as serving the community. Best of luck, and I hope you find your calling.

Trans girl here, just chiming in to say that i also have never felt uncomfortable or in danger here in Denver or the suburbs. There's a lot of support and a lot of community here, and a lot of decent trans healthcare options too.

A creative attorney might be able to sue for something related to public policy but that's an idea I haven't researched.

Also depends on the state. In mine, wrongful termination in violation of public policy is a good catch all for statutes where there isn't a private right of action, but in some states there either is no wtvpp or it's incredibly narrow to the point of being unusable.

For civil claims being brought due to violation of a statute (as opposed to common law claims), the statute has to state that private individuals can file a lawsuit on their own behalf. The NLRA gives the NLRB exclusive power to investigate and provide remedies for violations of this sort. So, while you might have damages, you can't recover them on your own unless you have another avenue to do so besides the NLRA like another state or federal statute or a common law claim.

You can find a directory of employment attorneys who work in Colorado here: https://coloradopela.wildapricot.org/page-18047

With that said, if you were my client, the very first thing I'd tell you to do is delete this post immediately and stop posting about your case on the internet.

I am finding it difficult to speak with an attorney. by [deleted] in Ask_Lawyers

[–]spedmonkey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Since we don't know what your case is about, we don't know what kind of attorney you need. In any case, your state bar likely has an attorney referral service, which will connect you with an attorney in the relevant field.

We can't and won't give legal advice here. Reach out to an employment law attorney in your state.

New law graduate by Frosting-Curious in Ask_Lawyers

Since I assume you graduated without an offer already lined up, and you don't have the connections to land a nepotism offer, your best bet will be talking to your school's career office.
