Knapp brings more than 20 years of experience to the firm, representing clients in all areas of employment law, including internal investigations, employee terminations, ADA accommodation issues, discrimination and harassment claims and wage and hour matters. His experience also includes litigating employment law cases in federal and state courts, and through complex arbitrations.

Knapp earned his J.D. from the University of Colorado School of Law and B.A. in political science from Colorado State University. He is admitted to practice law in Colorado and Arizona, and before the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.
