Our Editorial Team
We started this publication to close the gap between legal jargon and real understanding. Too often, people searching for answers after a crash are met with language that feels distant, technical, and hard to use in real life. We believe clear, careful writing can make a difficult moment a little less confusing, so our work is built around explaining complicated issues in a way that respects both the facts and the people trying to make sense of them.
Our focus is car accidents, road safety, and the legal issues that can follow a collision. We cover the questions that tend to matter most after a crash: what may have caused it, how fault is discussed, what steps often follow, and how laws and insurance issues can affect everyday decisions. We also pay close attention to safety concerns on the road, because understanding accidents means looking not only at what happens afterward, but also at the conditions and choices that shape them in the first place.
Our work is rooted in Vermont, and we aim to reflect the character of the state with reporting and explanations that feel grounded, practical, and human. Our writers, including Keith Lafleur, Colleen Robitaille, Dan Wilcox, and Janet Morin, bring a shared commitment to clarity, accuracy, and common sense. We are a small editorial team, and we take that responsibility seriously.
