If you lost your home or property in the 2018 Camp Fire, you may be entitled to compensation from the PG&E bankruptcy.
Our client's avocado ranch was destroyed in 2007 by a fire caused by a fallen power line. Fast moving Santa Ana winds carried the fire to our client's ranch resulting in massive crop damage and property loss. The case was resolved by a $10 million settlement after the defendant was proven to be at fault.
Our client, who was a professional athlete, lost his home and personal property due to a California wildfire. His losses included priceless memorabilia collected over his 20 professional sports career. The fire was caused by fallen power lines and carried to our client's home by fast-moving Santa Ana Winds. The case settled for $3 million.
PG&E's electrical equipment has been implicated in the 2018 Camp Fire. In some cases, California wildfires have been traced back to the negligence of an electric or gas utility company like PG&E. 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. PG&E should be held accountable for any damages the fire caused. This means that you may be entitled to compensation from both your insurance policy as well as a settlement offer from or judgement against PG&E.
If your home has been damaged or lost due to fire damage, an experienced attorney can help. At Laureti & Associates, A.P.C. and the Kane Law Firm, we will not only help settle any disputes you may have with your insurance, but we will also look to the cause of the fire and identify other parties that may be at fault for your loss. In some situations, this may be a person, business or some other entity that started the fire or created conditions that caused the fire to intensify.
