FAQ
Can I sue a utility company for causing a wildfire?
Yes. If a utility company’s equipment or negligence started the fire, you may be able to file a lawsuit for your losses. We’ll investigate whether an entity is responsible.
What compensation can wildfire victims get for property damage and health problems?
Victims may recover money for property repair or replacement, temporary housing, medical bills, lost income, emotional distress, and long-term health issues caused by smoke exposure or injury.
Can I still get compensation for wildfire damage if I don’t have insurance?
Yes. Even without insurance, some victims can pursue claims against negligent parties, such as utility companies or government agencies that failed to prevent or control the fire.
Do I need a lawyer for a wildfire insurance claim?
Insurance companies often delay or underpay claims. A wildfire lawyer can fight to make sure your claim is properly valued and that you receive the compensation you deserve.
How do wildfire lawsuits work?
Your attorney will investigate the cause of the fire, identify all responsible parties, and file claims or lawsuits on your behalf. Most cases resolve through settlements, but we’re prepared to go to court if necessary.
What should I do if my insurance company denies my wildfire claims?
Don’t give up. Many denials are based on errors or misinterpretations of your policy. We can appeal the decision or take legal action to recover what you’re owed.
Can renters and business owners get compensation after a wildfire?
Yes. Renters may receive payment for lost possessions and relocation expenses. Business owners can recover for lost profits, damaged inventory, and property repair.
