Wildfires, storms, and other disasters can cause devastating property losses—ranging from home destruction to the loss of valuable personal belongings. Recovering from such events often involves complex claims and battles with insurance companies. If your property has been damaged due to negligence, utility company failures, or natural disasters, you need an attorney who understands the complexities of property damage claims and will fight for the full compensation you deserve.
Each year, thousands of California homeowners and businesses face massive losses due to wildfires, utility company negligence, and other disasters. Property damage claims are often complicated by uncooperative insurance companies that attempt to minimize payouts or deny claims altogether. Property losses can include not only structural damage but also personal belongings, landscaping, vehicles, and valuable assets.
The aftermath of property destruction is emotionally and financially overwhelming. Victims frequently face challenges like temporary relocation, rebuilding costs, and disputes over insurance coverage. Many homeowners do not realize they can pursue compensation from third parties—such as utility companies—when negligence leads to fires or property damage.

Our firm works with expert witnesses, contractors, and insurance specialists to build strong claims that cover every aspect of your loss.
