Santa Rosa Fire Lawsuit
Late on Sunday October 8, 2017, a series of wildfires erupted in Northern California, likely due to downed power lines. Strong winds and a lack of rain caused these fires to spread quickly through Santa Rosa, Sonoma and Napa Valley, devastating the communities in their path.
Thousands of families evacuated the area while the governor of California declared a state of emergency. Efforts to control these blazes have made some progress, but fires continue to burn throughout the region.
To date, more than 5,000 homes have been damaged or lost, while at least 40 people have been killed and hundreds more have been injured by the Northern California fires.
Each one of us has friends, family, and neighbors impacted by this devastating event who lost loved ones, homes, businesses, pets, and life as they know it.
As our community begins the long road to recovery, our team is committed to holding those responsible accountable and being a resource for all who were harmed.
To provide our clients with the best possible legal representation, we’ve also partnered with an experienced team of nationwide attorneys with a long record of taking on MAJOR cases against powerful interests – and SUCCESSFULLY holding them accountable.
These kinds of cases are not only about providing compensation for the victims – as important as that goal is – they are also about changing corporate cultures and behavior.
Because in many instances, the only tool at our disposal – the only tool that can effect positive and long-lasting change – is the willingness of individuals to STAND UP to corporate power.
Fiumara Law is currently investigating whether poorly maintained PG&E equipment is to blame for the wild fires. PG&E is responsible for many of the power lines and transformers in the area; according to many reports, fallen lines may have sparked some or all of the fires.

How Did the Northern California Fires Start and Who Is to Blame?
Just before the outbreak of the wildfires in Santa Rosa, Sonoma and Napa Valley, California emergency crews responded to several reports of downed power lines and transformer explosions. The sparks from these events may have ignited nearby brush, which was dry due to a lack of rain.
PG&E issued a statement saying that “hurricane-force” winds damaged this equipment. However, some reports suggest that the wind speed was much lower when the power lines fell and only increased to hurricane conditions later.
This raises questions about the safety and maintenance of this electrical equipment. Additionally, PG&E has a long history of neglecting its infrastructure and equipment. In fact, the company was responsible for four of the 20 largest wild fires in California history.
For these reasons, the personal injury attorneys at Fiumara Law are currently investigating the Northern California fires. If negligence by PG&E is to blame, then victims and their families may be entitled to compensation from the company.
What Should I Do If I Lost a Loved One Due to the Fires?
The damage caused by the fires in Northern California is catastrophic.
The Tubbs fire in Sonoma County alone has caused as many as 20 deaths thus far. The Atlas fire in Napa County has destroyed over 50,000 acres, while the Cherokee and Nuns fires also threaten thousands of homes.
Additionally, several other fires continue to burn as well.
If you lost loved ones, sustained injuries or lost your home due to these fires, then you may be able to file a claim for compensation. Our Santa Rosa personal injury attorneys are currently investigating whether PG&E may be liable for these blazes.
