Los Angeles Wildfire Attorney
In recent years, California wildfires have destroyed thousands of homes, devastated communities, and caused serious injuries and loss of life. Many of these wildfires were preventable — sparked by power company negligence, poorly maintained equipment, or ignored safety protocols.
If you’ve suffered losses from a wildfire, you may be entitled to financial compensation — even if you don’t think you can afford a lawyer.
Wildfires and the Law
Wildfire lawsuits are typically filed against large utility companies or contractors whose negligence contributed to the fire. These may include:
- Electric utility companies
- Tree trimming or vegetation management contractors
- Landowners who failed to maintain firebreaks
- Government agencies
In some cases, lawsuits can also be filed for injuries suffered due to evacuation failures or inadequate emergency response.
Why Wildfire Lawsuits Are Complicated
Proving liability in a wildfire case is complex and often requires expert investigation and aggressive litigation. David Olan has the experience and resources needed to go up against major utility companies and insurers.
Even if you had partial insurance coverage, you may still be eligible for additional compensation under California law.
Types of Damages You Can Recover
- Property damage and loss
- Evacuation costs
- Emotional distress
- Physical injuries, including burns or smoke inhalation
- Loss of personal belongings
- Loss of income
- Temporary housing costs
- Wrongful death
The Cost of a Wildfire Attorney
Olan Law operates on a contingency fee basis — you pay nothing until we recover money for you. And because Olan Law handles complex litigation, you don’t need to worry about upfront legal costs.
Time Limits to File a Wildfire Lawsuit
Don’t wait. There are strict statutes of limitations that vary depending on who is being sued. In some cases, claims against government entities must be filed within six months of the fire.
