California Wildfire
For the Californians who lost everything to the fire.
Wildfire cases in California are as complex as they are personal. We represent homeowners, business owners, and families whose lives were upended — and we have the resources and patience these long recoveries require.
What it means
California wildfire claims, in plain English.
When a utility's equipment, a contractor's negligence, or another party's conduct causes a wildfire, the people who lost homes, businesses, and belongings can recover — separately from, and often in addition to, their insurance payout.
Cause
A named investigation or utility responsibility finding for the fire.
Loss
Destruction, damage, smoke, evacuation, and business interruption.
Recovery
Real-property value, contents, additional living expenses, and emotional distress.
