Fire Litigation

Wildfires have spread throughout the nation, impacting people’s lives in ways they never thought possible. From Ranches being burned by the Smokehouse Creek fire to lives being taken in the Maui fire to the complete destruction of entire towns with the Camp Fire, people need a trusted advocate when facing loss or injury.

Ms. Alexander has helped numerous clients obtain the justice they deserved after losing a home, business or loved one due to a wildfire. As a skilled wildfire attorney, she has successfully:

  • Obtained results against utilities
  • Obtained results against insurance companies

Wildfires Caused by Utilities

As a wildfire lawyer, Ms. Alexander regularly litigates against some of the largest utility companies in the nation. Her knowledge of how wildfires spread, how utilities mismanage their own equipment and how they cover up these incidents is extremely valuable to her clients. When billion-dollar utility CEOs see Mary coming, they know they’re dealing with a superstar lawyer.

Insurance Claims

When an insured person makes a legitimate claim and gets denied by an insurance company, that’s called insurance bad faith. Whenever a wildfire (or any type of fire) occurs, insurance companies are often quick to deny as many claims as possible so they don’t have to pay out money. They also delay the claims process in hopes that their own customers drop the claim and move on. Mary Alexander has a successful track record of helping fire victims get the justice they deserve from utility companies and from insurance companies. Her knowledge of insurance law and the ability to dig deep into a case to hold even the largest insurers accountable is second to none.
