Wrongful Termination Claims in Colorado In basic terms, wrongful termination occurs when an employee is fired for reasons that go against public policy. The experienced employment attorneys at HKM will stand up and fight for employees who have been terminated for wrongful reasons.
In Colorado, as in most states, the employer-employee relationship is generally considered at will. This means the employer can fire or demote the employee for any reason.
Are termination letters required? Most companies are not required by law to give employees letters of termination. The exceptions are those located in Arizona, California, Illinois and New Jersey. Most employers, however, do provide termination letters as a professional courtesy and a legal record.

A Settlement Agreement (formerly known as a Compromise Agreement) is a legally binding agreement between you and your employer. This usually provides for a severance payment by the employer in return for your agreement not to pursue any claims in a Tribunal or a Court.
