Delaram Takyar researches the intersection of social inequality and the law, considering how the law contributes to the marginalization of disadvantaged groups. HerÌýmost recent article, The Hidden Price of Government Immunity, argues in favor of reforming government immunity laws, which, the article argues, disproportionately affect poor communities and communities of color.

Prior to joining the Colorado Law faculty, Takyar was a visiting scholar at Vanderbilt Law School. She was previously a Skadden fellow at the Tennessee Justice Center, where she started a medical-legal partnership that provided free legal services to pregnant and postpartum patients at a federally qualifying health center. In that role, she also led an effort to develop self-help materials for pro se litigants in civil courts.

Takyar received her JD from Yale Law School, where she was student co-director of the San Francisco Affirmative Litigation Project and articles editor of the Yale Law and Policy Review. She received her Ph.D. in Sociology from New York University, where she wrote her dissertation about intergenerational economic mobility in the United States. She received her AB in Social Studies, with a secondary in Ethnicity, Migration, and Rights, from Harvard College.
