Colorado Lawyers

Colorado Lawyers for the Arts (CoLA) is the only organization in Colorado devoted exclusively to helping artists and arts organizations obtain pro bono legal services and education on legal matters that affect them.

CoLA helps member artists and arts organizations throughout the state of Colorado address a variety of legal and business issues through referrals to our panel of volunteer attorneys and by presenting seminars and other educational programs on a variety of legal issues that affect artists, arts organizations and the arts community.

Volunteer attorneys provide counseling, negotiation, litigation assistance and educational programs for members and non-members needing help with specific legal issues including intellectual property (copyrights, trademarks, licenses and patents), contracts, collections, non-profit and for-profit business establishment and operations, the Internet, and other areas.

CoLA's goal is to help artists and arts organizations succeed on their own creative abilities so that success or failure does not hinge on legal pitfalls.
