Fueled by extreme drought, low humidity, and 100 mph Santa Ana winds, the fires triggered waves of litigation against Southern California Edison (SCE) and others for negligence, faulty infrastructure, and failure to prevent the disaster.

In January 2025, Los Angeles and surrounding communities were rocked by a series of 31 catastrophic wildfires.
Fed by historic drought conditions, hurricane-force Santa Ana winds, and poor infrastructure oversight, fires like the Palisades Fire and Eaton Fire scorched more than 38,000 acres, destroyed over 14,000 structures, and displaced more than 200,000 residents. Tragically, 29 lives were lost.
Now, survivors are seeking justice.
These lawsuits seek compensation for lost businesses, injuries, and wrongful deaths. Claims also target local government and insurance companies for mismanagement and bad faith practices.
Legal efforts aim not just to recover damages but to drive systemic reforms and accountability.
If you or your family were affected by the 2025 California wildfires, you may qualify for significant compensation.
Lawsuits are now being filed against power companies, government agencies, and insurers for negligence and failures that contributed to these devastating blazes.
You may qualify to file a claim if:
• Your business or home was destroyed or damaged
• You or a loved one were injured or experienced health problems due to smoke or toxic exposure
• You lost a loved one in the fires
• Your insurance claim was denied or undervalued
• You suffered financial losses from evacuations or business interruption
Our law firm is investigating these cases.
Lawsuits are currently being filed against:
• Southern California Edison (SCE) for failing to properly maintain and shut down power lines
• The City of Los Angeles and LADWP for inadequate water pressure and mismanagement of critical resources
• Insurance companies for delaying, denying, or underpaying valid claims
These cases are following the same legal roadmap that led to billions in payouts in past wildfire litigation, including PG&E’s $13.5 billion Camp Fire settlement.
