In 1999, Beth Klein, P.C. was established. Beth successfully resolved a state-wide class action against American Cemwood for defective roofing materials that impacted many Colorado homeowners. Additionally, she led a pivotal class action against American Family Insurance, resulting in the retroactive enhancement of 27,000 automobile policies to provide better coverage in compliance with Colorado law, benefiting thousands.

Post the massive earthquake in Haiti, Klein collaborated with the US Military, State Department, and numerous families to assist in the adoption process of Haitian children. In January 2024, her humanitarian efforts took her to Uganda with Heal & Thrive to launch a literacy center near Soroti. This center aims to empower 120 widows and single mothers, teaching them literacy skills essential for business and self-sufficiency, thus contributing to the fight against slavery.

In Kenya and Uganda, women and girls responsible for entire families often face extreme hardships. Beth's work is directed at offering them opportunities for a better future.

Beth has filed lawsuits against military contractors involved in misconduct in war and conflict zones. One notable case, Dawson v. Fluor, received recognition as the “Case of the Year” by the Colorado Trial Lawyers Association and was entered into the Texas Verdict Hall of Fame. This case, resulting in a $19 million verdict, required locating witnesses in Iraq and negotiating with various governmental entities.
