Can I Sue Edison for Wildfire Damage?

Learn your legal options after the California wildfires.
If you or your family were impacted by the Eaton wildfire, you may be able to file a legal claim against the utility company. Downed power lines or faulty equipment owned by the utility company Southern California Edison have been linked to the cause of these fires.
Even if you’ve already filed an insurance claim—or if your insurance claim was denied—you may still be able to pursue compensation here.

- Out-of-pocket expenses related to the fire
- Medical bills from injuries, smoke inhalation, or related health impacts

Why You May Be Able to Sue Edison
California law allows victims to file claims against utility companies when the utility’s equipment causes a wildfire. Our legal team is investigating potential cases against Southern California Edison and is currently representing wildfire victims impacted by the Eaton wildfire.
Filing a claim against Edison is not the same as filing an insurance claim. It is a separate legal process that can potentially help victims recover damages that insurance may not fully cover, including damages for emotional distress and long-term financial loss.
