Legal Experience
as a Denver Business Attorney
Prior to becoming an attorney, Elizabeth worked with a small Denver startup that grew rapidly over the years to be purchased by Experian, one of the three major credit bureaus. Seeing the growing pains that a startup had going through several mergers, layoffs, and dealing with legislation around a new industry, Elizabeth started to pursue a career in the legal field with dreams of working with others to help alleviate some issues that she saw those around her go through.
After working in the legal field for several years under others, Elizabeth was able to follow the path of many of her family members and became (at least) a fifth generation business owner. On January 1, 2010, Elizabeth opened the doors of her own law firm, the Law Office of E.C. Lewis, P.C. As a Denver business attorney, she continues to provide small business owners with legal help in a number of areas on all aspects of their business, from startup to dissolution and everything in between. In addition to helping a variety of small businesses on the daily legal aspects they need, she also focuses on technology and online law, having represented hundreds of technology, health, and STEM related business.
Prior to starting her own business law firm, Elizabeth worked for the Law Firm of David A. Sprecace, P.C., where she developed the firm’s business and technology law practice. She also has extensive experience in these fields from working under the lead attorney at the University of Colorado Technology Transfer Office, where she wrote licensing, terms of use, non-compete, employment, and business contracts.

IT Background
Prior to attending the University of Colorado Law School, Elizabeth worked at Experian, one of the largest credit bureaus in the country after the startup she originally worked through went through several mergers. There, she was a member of the IT department and focused on email marketing initiatives. The hands-on experience she acquired working in an IT environment gave Elizabeth an in-depth understanding of the challenges startups face. This included everything from software licensing issues to the specific legal problems companies can encounter in the many stages of their evolution, from startup to industry leader to, in some cases, closing their doors.
Her time working in IT for a major corporation has given her the background and perspective she needs to guide the companies she works with. All of the opportunities and obstacles her clients encounter are things she is familiar with from firsthand experience.
In addition to working in IT, Elizabeth also holds a Master of Science in Computer Information Technology. As part of her education, she helped manage the technology infrastructure of the university. She continues to be active in the IT community, attending conferences, classes, and events. This allows her to learn about the latest technology so she can provide helpful advice to her clients.
