Burlington, Vermont’s second-oldest law firm in continuous existence, McCormick, Fitzpatrick, Kasper & Burchard, P.C., traces its origins to 1940. Our attorneys have a remarkable breadth of experience, ranging from large, metropolitan firms, to stints as prosecutors, and serve as judicial law clerks. We bring passion, intelligence and commitment to our work. With a focus on Estate Planning, Probate & Trust Law, Mediation, Litigation, and Worker’s Compensation, we represent individuals, corporations, and many of the nation’s largest insurers in a wide range of civil matters. Our Trial Attorneys handle civil cases in state and federal courts, large and small, for plaintiffs and for defendants. We also mediate a range of civil actions, including personal injury actions, product liability actions, contract disputes, landlord/tenant disputes and insurance coverage disputes.

In Workers’ Compensation matters our experienced attorneys represent many of the nation’s largest insurers, as well as self-insured employers before the Vermont Department of Labor, and the Vermont courts. We handle disputed claims in the most cost-effective way possible for our clients, from assistance in complex adjusting issues, through the litigation process, and in the negotiation of settlements.
