do you have a lawsuit if your property was damaged by a california wildfire?


In some cases, California wildfires have been traced back to the negligence of an electric or gas utility company. The company may try to avoid responsibility for the fire by claiming that the fire was caused by weather conditions or some other variable beyond their control. The company should be held accountable for any damages the fire caused.

Tony was the best ever. He was responsive and would answer any questions I had right away. I have had experiences with lawyers who would act like you were bothering them when you had questions. He made me feel like he was treating my case like it was his most important case. Not one complaint and I tell anyone who asks if I know an Attorney about Tony. Thank you again.

Fire Damage FAQs

What legal recourse do I have if my property sustains fire damage?

If your property suffers fire damage, you may have legal options to pursue compensation for your losses. A lawyer experienced in property damage claims can assess your situation, review your insurance policy, and determine the best course of action to recover damages.

How can a lawyer assist with filing an insurance claim for fire damage?

A lawyer can review your insurance policy, assess the extent of your damages, and ensure that you receive fair and adequate compensation from your insurance company. Additionally, if your insurance company denies or undervalues your claim, a lawyer can advocate on your behalf and negotiate with the insurance company to reach a favorable resolution.

Can a lawyer help me recover damages outside of insurance coverage?

Yes, a lawyer can help you explore additional avenues for recovering damages beyond insurance coverage for fire damage. This may include pursuing compensation from responsible parties such as negligent property owners, manufacturers of defective products that contributed to the fire, contractors who performed faulty repairs or maintenance, or even negligent utility companies responsible for wildfires due to faulty infrastructure. A lawyer can assess the facts of your case, identify liable parties, and pursue legal action to hold them accountable for your losses.

What if I suspect that the fire was caused by someone else's negligence or intentional actions?

If you believe that the fire was caused by someone else's negligence or intentional actions, you may have grounds for a legal claim for damages. A lawyer can help you gather evidence to support your claim, such as witness statements, expert opinions, and investigative reports. They can also assess the strength of your case and advise you on the best course of action, which may include filing a lawsuit against the responsible party to seek compensation for your fire damage losses.

What legal challenges might arise during the fire damage claims process?

During the claims process, you may encounter legal challenges like disputes over coverage, valuation of damages, or delays in claims processing. A lawyer can help you address these challenges by providing legal advice, negotiating with the insurance company, and, if necessary, representing you in litigation.

How can a lawyer help with the legal aftermath of fire damage, like property disputes?

A fire damage attorney can provide legal representation and advocacy to protect your rights and interests. They can assist with resolving property disputes with landlords, tenants, or neighboring property owners, as well as challenging insurance claim denials or inadequate settlement offers. Additionally, a lawyer can represent you in litigation if necessary to pursue compensation for your fire damage losses through the legal system.
