Frequently Asked
Questions

Here’s what clients ask us most before filing a
claim.

Eligibility is generally based on your proximity to the fire and the specific losses you sustained. You may qualify if you are a homeowner, renter, business owner, or public entity that experienced:

Property Damage: Including total loss, structure damage, or smoke and ash contamination.

Financial Loss: Such as evacuation expenses, lost wages, or business interruptions.

Physical & Emotional Harm: Including smoke inhalation, physical injuries, or the emotional distress caused by the disaster.

We are currently representing clients in several major active litigations. If you have been impacted by a recent wildfire in California or Hawaii, we can help you determine if your specific location falls within an active litigation zone.

Victims may seek compensation for property loss, landscaping destruction, evacuation expenses, smoke damage, business interruption, medical bills, emotional distress, and uninsured or underinsured losses.

You pay no upfront fees. Frantz Law Group works on a contingency basis, meaning there is no financial risk unless we win compensation for your losses.

Even if your insurance covered part of the damage, you may still have underinsured losses. Our team helps clients recover compensation for property, landscaping, and emotional harm that insurance doesn’t fully cover.

In California, most wildfire claims must be filed within two years of the fire. However, time limits may vary based on your location and insurance terms. We recommend contacting our team as soon as possible to preserve your rights.

Yes. Renters who lost personal property, were displaced, or experienced smoke or emotional damage are eligible to pursue claims even if they don’t own the property.
