Pre Post Offer Damages Split in Vermont

Under Vermont law, the 12% statutory interest rate in Vt. Stat. Ann. tit. 12, § 2904 applies to the entire judgment from the date the cause of action accrued, meaning pre-offer and post-offer damages are not split for interest purposes. The statute sets the rate at 12% and directs that interest is computed from the date the right of action accrued, regardless of any settlement offer or partial payment. This single, uniform rate applies to the full judgment amount, covering both damages incurred before and after any offer, without a separate rate for each period. The official statute provides the precise calculation method. To estimate interest on a specific case, use the calculator linked to the official source.
