Nov 12, 2007 -- /prbuzz/ --Ambler, PA(Fri Nov 9 2007)--Kimmel & Silverman, a nationally recognized lemon law and consumer advocacy firm that has provided cost-free legal help to more than 40,000 consumers over the last decade, has expanded into Vermont. The practice, managed by Vermont Lemon Law attorney Christopher Holliday, is the first law firm to offer free lemon law and breach of warranty assistance to distressed drivers throughout the State.
The Vermont Lemon Law applies to new cars, vans or trucks (under 12,000 lbs) sold, leased or registered in Vermont, that suffer a nonconformity -- a defect or condition that cannot be repaired after three attempts by an authorized manufacturer's dealership. This defect must substantially impair the vehicle's use, value or safety, and must first occur within the warranty period. The Vermont Lemon Law also applies to vehicles that are in the shop for repair 30 or more calendar days during the first year. The law also contains a fee-shifting provision, which means that if the consumer prevails, the manufacturer is responsible for all of the plaintiff's attorney fees and legal costs, in addition to the award. If the consumer uses the firm's services and doesn't prevail for whatever reason, there is still no charge.
