Annual Review of 2017 Fire Law Headlines

It’s time for the annual review of the top Fire Law news stories of 2017. Every year it is so hard to objectively evaluate a year’s worth of stories. My solution is to look at stories in several different ways. First, let’s look at the 10 most viewed stories of 2017.

Curt Varone has over 45 years of fire service experience and 35 as a practicing attorney licensed in both Rhode Island and Maine. His background includes 29 years as a career firefighter in Providence (retiring as a Deputy Assistant Chief), as well as volunteer and paid on call experience.
