The Facts of the Mountain View Fire

The Mountain View Fire began on November 17, 2020, in the town of Walker, California, and burned more than 20,000 acres, destroyed 90 homes, and killed one homeowner.

What Caused the Mountain View Fire?

An investigation is taking place into the origin of the Mountain View Fire. Information and evidence point to specific Liberty Utilities infrastructure as the cause of the fire.

Claims are being made against Liberty Utilities alleging:

  • Liberty Utilities negligently failed to de-energize its powerlines in the area.
  • Liberty Utilities failed to properly inspect and maintain its overhead electrical equipment.

Mountain View Fire Claims – Compensation You Can Seek

Mountain View fire victims are homeowners, renters, business owners, and other individuals and entities whose property and lives were, literally and figuratively, destroyed by the Mountain View Fire.

While each case is different, common damage categories include:

  • Lost wages
  • Loss of crops
  • Personal injury
  • Wrongful death
  • Business losses
  • Emotional distress
  • Harm to pets or livestock
  • Depreciation in the value of your land
  • Damage to trees, timber, or underwood
  • The loss of use and enjoyment of your property
  • The cost to repair or replace your home and personal property

If Liberty Utilities is found to be responsible for causing the fire, you may be entitled to damages that your insurance – even good insurance — won’t cover. In addition to underinsured homes, most insurance policies don’t cover vegetation that is not part of the landscaping, natural vegetation or compensation for you or your family for the upheaval caused by the Mountain View Fire. The law provides for more compensation than most people realize.

When our Mountain View Fire Lawyers take on a case, we are consciously thorough in our investigations. We must be sure that we have identified all of your damages and accurately calculated them.

We will not be satisfied with a case outcome unless you get every last penny you deserve from the parties responsible for the destructive Mountain View Fire. Call us (415) 534-1911
