| claim | free route | statute |
|---|---|---|
| Landlord & tenant a landlord keeping my deposit | — | Wyo. Stat. § 1-21-1208 |
| Employment unpaid overtime | The Labor Standards Division of the Department of Workforce Services takes a Claim for Wages, filed online. Filing it authorises the Division to collect the money for you, and to settle for less than the full amount if it cannot get all of it — if it does that you have ten days to object in writing.↗ | — |
| Consumer a debt collector harassing me | The Attorney General's Consumer Protection and Antitrust Unit takes the complaint at no cost. Wyoming has no fair debt collection act of its own, so the federal claim above is the specific law here and this office enforces the Consumer Protection Act behind it.↗ | — |
| Employment being fired for complaining | Your EEOC deadline here is 300 days rather than the 180 most national articles print, and the reason is the Labor Standards Division of the Department of Workforce Services: the extension in 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1) turns on whether a state agency has authority over the same conduct, and here one does. That office takes the charge and it costs nothing. It also sets a filing deadline of its own, and in a dozen states that one is shorter than the federal window — ask the office for its date rather than counting on the 300.↗ | — |
| Injury a car accident | — | Wyo. Stat. § 1-3-105(a)(iv)(C) |
