Eaton Fire
Now 98% contained, the Eaton Fire
has destroyed over 14,000 acres in Los Angeles County,
devastating the city of Altadena and surrounding neighborhoods.
Altadena's Historical Landmarks & Neighborhoods
Altadena is rich in history and diversity. Tragically, the Eaton Fire has laid to ruin numerous historical buildings, including the McNally House, the Pasadena Jewish Temple & Center,
and the Bunny Museum. It has destroyed multi-generational homes owned by African Americans who moved to the West Coast during the Great Migration, fleeing Jim Crow laws of the South and seeking job opportunities during wartime efforts. Altadena soon became a center of Black Excellence, with such notable individuals as Octavia Butler, Sidney Poitier, Jazz musician Eli Adams, and Willa Beatrice Brown, the first Black woman in the U.S. to receive a commercial pilot's license. It has since evolved into a cultural hub with family-owned restaurants
and a large number of minority homeowners.
Anything we could say about just how tremendous a loss this is to Southern California would be an understatement. Our hearts mourn with the community of Altadena, and we offer our support, hope, and expertise to all who will need it in the days ahead.
Eaton Fire Lawsuit
Although the cause is still under investigation, early reports show that
Southern California Edison Company power lines may have caused the wildfire.
Wildfire Lawsuits
In the aftermath of a devastating wildfire, victims often find that they are underinsured for the damages caused by such an intense blaze. In cases where local power companies are found liable for the fire, victims may be compensated by the company for the damages they caused. Lawsuits such as these that involve well-funded utilities companies require expert attorneys who are experienced in wildfire litigation.
Experienced Wildfire Lawyers
Our wildfire lawyers have represented thousands of families, businesses and property owners, recovering billions of dollars on their behalf for preventable wildfires. Our attorneys have taken lead roles in litigation for some of California's most devastating preventable wildfires.

Thousands of people are experiencing the fallout from the worst fire tragedies in California history. The losses are immense, and the full extent is yet to be realized. As you begin to evaluate your situation and move towards the long recovery process, many questions remain. Were the fires preventable? What is the best way to deal with insurance companies? How can the maximum recovery be obtained for losses? What options are there for the uninsured?
Since 2007, Wildfire Trial Lawyers have represented thousands of home, business and property owners who lost everything to preventable wildfires caused by negligent power companies and have recovered billions of dollars from losses. Our attorneys have spearheaded (and been appointed as lead trial counsel and/or on plaintiff’s liaison committee) some of the largest wildfire litigation in California.
Will Insurance Cover the Losses for Altadena Fire Victims?
Victims who have lost their homes due to the recent wildfires are coming to a devastating realization, that their homeowner’s insurance may not provide enough insurance coverage to cover all their damages. Although the causes of the fires are still under investigation, our investigation leads us to believe that negligence on the part of Southern California Edison Company may have contributed to these catastrophic events.
If the utility company is even partially responsible, you have the right to recover money as compensation for your damages, such as:
Even properly insured victims are coming to a shocking realization. Their insurance may not provide enough coverage to compensate for all their damages. Damage to fencing structures, irrigation systems, and expensive landscaping could very well not be covered by many insurance policies. In addition, claims for emotional distress and fleeing the zone of the danger can only be recovered against the utility company and/or its subcontractors.
