The deadline for returning your DBA 2001 Colorado Legal & Financial Directory verification card is June 15. These cards are the easiest way to ensure a correct listing in the next directory.

Just look over your information printed on the card, make any changes and put the self-addressed, postage-paid card in the mail. Even if all of the information on the card is correct, please return the card.

If you don't return the card, your listing will be taken directly from the business information that you have on file with the Supreme Court's Office of Attorney Registration as of June 1.

For those of you in law firms or legal departments with five or more attorneys, these cards were sent directly to the law office or legal department administrator. He or she will either route the forms to individual attorneys for verification, or verify the listings for the entire firm.

"But I never received a card."

If you don't have a current business address on file with Attorney Registration, you may not have received your card. You can still verify your information by calling Pam Amato, Data Manager for the 2001 Colorado Legal & Financial Directory, at (303) 584-6740. Or, go to the CBA Web site (www.cobar.org) and fill out the online address verification form. Remember, if you work for a law firm or legal department employing five or more attorneys, your verification card was sent to the law office or legal department administrator.
