How Connecticut law treats burn-injury claims

Shared fault

Connecticut applies modified comparative fault with a 51% bar: recovery is lost once the injured person is more at fault than the defendants combined.

Claims against government

Claims for injuries caused by a defective municipal highway or sidewalk require written notice to the town clerk or a selectman within 90 days. Claims against the State go to the Claims Commissioner within one year.
