Slip and fall lawyer Vermont: your deadline
The first thing a Vermont slip and fall lawyer checks is the clock. You have three years from the day you fell to file, under 12 V.S.A. § 512.
Talks with the owner's insurer do not stop that clock. Only a lawsuit filed in court does.
How Vermont splits the blame
Vermont lets you collect if you were half to blame or less. Above that, the claim is barred. The rule is in 12 V.S.A. § 1036.
Say a jury values the case at $40,000 and finds you 20 percent to blame. You would receive $32,000.
