FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:​​​

​

1.  What caused the Eaton Fire? 

​

Evidence strongly suggests that Southern California Edison caused the January 7 2025 Altadena Fire violating numerous regulations and their own wildfire mitigation plan. Our Complaint (scan QR code on back to read) articulates multiple causes of action. We are also investigating the role of governmental agencies in causing the damage and destruction.

​

2.  Will a lawsuit affect my ability to recover from insurance?

​

A lawsuit against SCE is separate from your insurance recovery efforts.  You can and should pursue BOTH.

​

3.  Do we have to pay our lawyers to sue SCE?

​

Attorneys fees only get paid if there is a settlement. There is no catch to this.  It is that simple.

​

4.  What expertise is required to litigate this case, and why is the Altadena fire different?
 

We firmly believe that catastrophic loss experience is critical.  The Altadena Fire is NOT just another California fire case.  This fire saw damage to an urban and rural interface, notification issues, water access issues, and response delays. Your attorneys must think outside the box.

​

5.  What kind of injuries and claims can we bring?

 

​Claims include but are not limited to:

​

  • wrongful death, bodily injury

  • Property damage, covering the home or business and its contents

  • Loss of wages or business income

  • Costs of evacuation and alternate housing

  • Emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of your property

  • Construction costs (if you intend to rebuild your home)

 

Even if your property was insured for fire, you may be and most likely are due further recovery from those that may be responsible for the fire.

​

And if your insurance company is not or was not acting appropriately, you may have separate claims for bad faith against your carrier and/or claims for underinsurance.
