Experienced Wildfire Attorneys Committed to Individualized Attention to Maximize Your Recovery

If there is no recovery, then there are never any fees or costs to you.

We are a team of experienced lawyers that pursue recovery on behalf of fire victims harmed by wildfires caused by major corporations and utility companies.  We have joined forces with Hawaii local counsel to represent victims of the devastating Lahaina Fire that ignited on August 8, 2023.  Our hearts go out to all that were affected.

Preliminary investigation shows that major utility and communications companies, such as HECO and MECO, failed to safely maintain and operate their electrical equipment in the face of red flag warnings and other dangerous conditions which caused the Lahaina Fire to ignite.  Those determined to be responsible for causing the fire can be held accountable to pay for your damages.
