Trial lawyers are a fundamental part of the judicial branch of government and the Vermont Trial Lawyers Association exists to improve and promote the quality of jurisprudence in the State of Vermont. We believe that there is a need for an organization made up of the trial bar in Vermont that includes all lawyers who try cases in the Courts and Tribunals of Vermont.
Trial lawyers who try commercial cases, divorce cases, personal injury cases, probate cases, criminal cases and others all have one thing in common - they are officers of the Court and carry out the purpose of the judicial system. The judicial branch of government was created to allow for legal reprieve for citizens with disputes, to enable orderly transactions, to enforce the laws of the state and for other similar purposes.
Without trial lawyers, people are left to their own devices to navigate through the complex legal system. With trial lawyers, the system works and allows everyone to navigate through a system with the ultimate goal of giving them justice.

American jurisprudence has always depended on an active, informed and forceful trial bar to protect the rights and interests of its clients, whoever they may be.
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed; which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.

Alan Dershowitz, Harvard Law Professor Emeritus, knows a thing or two about the practice of law and teaching law students.
At 28, he became the youngest full Professor of Law in the history of Harvard Law School.
He was already a noted attorney by the time he became a member of the legal dream team that represented O.J. Simpson during his 1994 murder trial.
Dershowitz, who is still a practicing attorney, author, and cable news analyst, took the time to answer a few questions helpful to young law students.
