CounselingWho Are We?

Jeffco Action Center's Tenant / Landlord Counseling is a non-profit program where experienced and qualified individuals offer call-in service concerning tenant or landlord rights and obligations under Colorado law. The office has operated for several years as an important part of Jeffco Action Center and has helped countless clients get assistance on tenant landlord problems. There is no charge or fee.

The office is not a law firm nor a substitute for professional representation, but we do offer assistance with a variety of questions concerning tenants and landlords. The office assists all callers or visitors, especially lower income tenants, as well as newcomers to Colorado, and smaller or first time landlords.

Last year, Tenant/Landlord counselors handled more than 2,700 cases.

 

Where Can We Be Reached?

Counselors are available to return calls Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00am to 3:00pm. After 3:00pm, callers can leave their name and a phone number where they can be reached and expect to receive a return call no later than the following business day. If your need is urgent, you should call your attorney. We are closed for all holidays.

While the office welcomes phone calls from anywhere within the state of Colorado, we cannot accept reverse charge calls.
