How Wyoming law treats scald burns

Statutory research reviewed 2026-08-14. Not legal advice.

Shared fault
Wyoming applies modified comparative fault: recovery survives so long as the injured person's share of fault is not more than 50%.
Wyo. Stat. Ann. § 1-1-109(b)
Damage caps
Wyoming imposes no statutory cap on damages in ordinary injury cases. Claims against government entities are separately limited to $250,000 per claimant and $500,000 per occurrence.
Wyo. Stat. Ann. § 1-39-118
Claims against government
Wyoming allows two years to present an itemized claim, but suit must then begin within one year after the claim is filed — a second, shorter clock that is easy to miss.
Wyo. Stat. Ann. §§ 1-39-113(a), 1-39-114

Directory coverage for Wyoming is expanding

We don’t have listings here yet — coverage grows state by state rather than all at once. Burn and fire cases are routinely handled across state lines, so attorneys listed elsewhere in the region may still be able to help.
