A: If you're considering filing a lawsuit against Walmart for harassment, discrimination, and racial profiling in Colorado, the first step is to gather and organize all your evidence, including the video evidence of the incident. This will be crucial in building your case.

Next, you should consult with an attorney experienced in civil rights and discrimination law. They can review your evidence, advise you on the strength of your case, and guide you through the legal process.

Your lawyer will likely discuss with you the specifics of the incident, how it fits into the legal definitions of harassment, discrimination, and racial profiling, and what outcomes you can reasonably expect from a lawsuit.

Be prepared for the legal process to take time and require your active participation. Lawsuits, especially against large corporations like Walmart, can be lengthy and complex.

It's also important to be aware of any relevant statutes of limitations in Colorado. These laws set the maximum time after an event within which legal proceedings may be initiated, so timely action is essential.

Remember, every situation is unique, and the success of a lawsuit depends heavily on the specifics of the case. Legal advice tailored to your specific circumstances will be key to navigating this process effectively.
