Employment Practices Liability Insurance
Share Post: I am lucky enough to work with some extremely fantastic local businesses in Colorado. Our team works on all sorts of employment issues
As a transactional attorney, I focus my practice on helping clients plan for and react to business events much more so than I do on interpreting statutes or legislation. Sometimes, however, a statutory change or judicial ruling will have a wide-ranging—and retroactive—impact that is impossible to ignore.
Two such impacts have recently…impacted. Earlier this year, the Department of Labor changed its rules on how to determine if a person performing services for a business is a contractor or an employee. And earlier last month, the Federal Trade Commission banned non-compete agreements in all but a few circumstances, and voided most existing non-compete agreements.
The specific terms of each ruling are vitally important to certain businesses (and feel free to consult your friendly neighborhood attorney with any questions!), but are generally more important for what they can teach everyone about running a resilient business.
The best laid plans of mice and men might often go awry, but the wisest mice make sure they have a good plan B.

Colorado’s commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting energy efficiency has culminated in the enactment of Regulation 28, officially titled “Building Benchmarking and Performance Standards.” This regulation is a key component of the state’s broader efforts to address climate change, aiming to significantly reduce energy consumption in commercial buildings. For property owners, this regulation represents both a challenge and an opportunity—one that requires careful navigation to ensure compliance and avoid potential penalties.
An Indiana zoning case recently dredged up the age-old law school conundrum of what constitutes a sandwich and why we should care. Well, maybe the court didn’t actually weigh in on why we should care… but, it did make a determination that the taco IS, in fact, a sandwich.
