EVENT BACKGROUND

At SRH Law, we feel privileged to have the opportunity to work with people across Vermont who are engaged in creative and meaningful enterprises that make a real difference in our communities. Helping these inspiring individuals, nonprofits, and businesses succeed is what makes the practice of law so fulfilling for all of us.

We’ve created Art+Soul to celebrate their good work, raise money for great causes, and help people forge new connections in Vermont’s vibrant creative economy. Each year, Art+Soul benefits a different local nonprofit and features local art inspired by, or connected to, the nonprofit’s mission. All art will be sold, and proceeds from art sales will be split between the artists and the nonprofit.

2015 BENEFICIARY

This year, the event will benefit Community Health Centers of Burlington and will feature artwork inspired by their mission. For over four decades, the Community Health Centers of Burlington’s mission has been to provide quality, affordable medical, dental and counseling services to all people, regardless of ability to pay or life circumstances. Services are offered in an environment that conveys respect, offers support, and encourages people to be actively involved in their own health care.

SRH Law client Renoun Ski Company featured in Burlington Free Press

An innovative new ski technology with Vermont roots was recently featured in the Burlington Free Press.

Meet Cyrus Schenck, 24, of Burlington, a college dropout and the founder of a ski company – Renoun – Posted by Burlington Free Press on Thursday, April 9, 2015

renoun Cyrus Schenck—SRH Law client, native of Shelburne and founder of the Renoun Ski Company—has designed a “hyper-dampening” ski that hardens rather than gives under pressure, eliminating the experience of skis “vibrating” on the snow. As Schenck explains:

If you zoom into an edge, vibration is just the bouncing of an edge on and off the snow. Think of that bouncing as something hitting the ski. It’s just an impact. So the harder that impact is, the more this stuff reacts to it and the more damp, in this case, it becomes.

The effect is achieved with a kind of putty with unique properties that Schenck and several friends learned about at Clarkson University, where he was studying aeronautical engineering. The idea evolved into a ski industry startup, which has since been selected as a finalist in the 2015 LaunchVT Competition for startups and among the top five contenders at the 2015 Peak Pitch competition.

After Renoun won the gold in the All-Mountain Ski category at the 2015/16 ISPO Munich awards for sporting goods, Schenck sought to protect his innovative use of non-Newtonian materials in skis and snowboards. Schenck filed a patent application, soliciting the help of SRH Law intellectual property attorney, Justin McCabe, for guidance on global patent prosecution strategy and licensing. The patent is currently pending.

Renoun Ski Company appeared once before in the Justin McCabe’s Green Mountain IP blog.

Dunkiel Saunders congratulates Schenck and the Renoun Ski Company on the coverage and we look forward to seeing this new technology thrive in the ski industry.

Designed to improve the flow of traffic for motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists in Burlington’s south end, the Project has received support from Burlington Mayor Miro Weinberger. In a Burlington Free Press article, Champlain Parkway gets final permit, the Mayor describes the work left to be done before construction will begin.

Environmental Court allows Act 250 permit for Burlington’s Champlain Parkway Project

Road construction signIn its order last month, the Vermont Environmental Court decided to allow an Act 250 permit for the proposed Champlain Parkway Project, slated for Burlington’s south end. Fortieth Burlington had appealed the Act 250 District Commission’s findings in 2011, arguing that the Project would cause burdensome traffic impacts to its property. Co-applicants, the State of Vermont Agency of Transportation and the City of Burlington, represented by Brian Dunkiel and Betsy Catlin, argued their case before the court this past spring. The City asserted that the Parkway would improve the flow of traffic for motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists, and that the plans would strike the proper balance between the vast public benefits of the Project and provide reasonable access to the Fortieth property.

2014-07-17 SVG logoSRH Law assisted Seventh Generation Ventures, Inc. with the recent acquisition from the Gamila Company of the Teastick tea infuser and Impress single-serve coffee maker lines of business. The Teastick and Impress lines will complement the company’s existing bobble water filtration business. The transaction has been reported widely by numerous sources, such as the Wall Street Journal.

Khalifa and Replogle quickly developed a friendship that ultimately led to the deal.

The transaction also included an agreement between Seventh Generation Ventures and another Khalifa business to collaborate on the design of other filtration technologies, including the possible development of a low cost water filtration system for emerging countries with scarce water and financial resources.

Drew Kervick comments on health care provider apology laws

drew-kervick_060414_604096SRH Law attorney Drew Kervick provides expert commentary for the article, “‘Apology bill’ shields health care providers’ apologies from malpractice suits in Wisconsin.”

The author of the article, Kathy Boltz, explains that “[t]he intent of the law is to make statements of apology or condolence by health care providers inadmissible as evidence. The legislation could foster more conversations between health care providers and patients/family members when such interaction is needed most.”

In his commentary, Drew describes how apology laws, one having recently been adopted by Wisconsin, apply to nurses depending on the individual state law.
