Airola, of Airola Law Offices. &#8220;It really hit home for me on a personal level as I was helping my mother evacuate. I understand the impact this fire has had on area residents and I&#8217;ll be available to answer questions and fight on behalf of everyone affected by the fire.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Local attorneys\u00a0Steven and John Airola, along with an expert group of attorneys from\u00a0Sacramento\u00a0and\u00a0Southern California, have joined together and will be on hand at the Town Hall meeting to offer advice and answer questions regarding their next steps.\u00a0Steven Airola,\u00a0John Airola,\u00a0Eric Ratinoff,\u00a0Brett Parkinson\u00a0and\u00a0Robert Jackson\u00a0are all established attorneys with their own distinct practices, have extensive experience fighting insurance matters, specifically involving fire loss, insurance bad faith and public utility liability. More particularly, Mr. Ratinoff, Mr. Parkinson and Mr. Jackson have handled hundreds of cases on behalf of wildfire victims who have lost everything. During the town hall meeting, the attorneys will discuss the recourse homeowners, ranchers and business owners in\u00a0Calaveras\u00a0and\u00a0Amador\u00a0Counties have when it comes to rebuilding and will answer questions such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Where do I go from here?<\/li>\n<li>Who do I call first?<\/li>\n<li>How do I work with my insurance company to make sure I get what I paid for?<\/li>\n<li>What if I don&#8217;t have enough insurance to rebuild?<\/li>\n<li>What if I don&#8217;t have insurance at all?<\/li>\n<li>Do I have any other rights?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Butte Fire destroyed over 500 homes and more than 300 outbuildings since the blaze started on\u00a0September 9, 2015. Concern has arisen that there could be negligence on the part of Pacific Gas and Electric Company after key officials indicated that the fire may have started when a tree fell and came into contact with one of their power lines. The above attorneys have inspected the power line and tree fire authorities believe to be responsible for the start of the Butte fire. They want to share what they have learned.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the town hall meeting or the attorneys who will be on hand, visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.buttefire.lawyer\/\">www.buttefire.lawyer<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San Andreas, CA&#8230;Following the devastating Butte Fire, many of the displaced\u00a0Calaveras\u00a0and\u00a0Amador County\u00a0residents are seeking help and guidance regarding steps they can take to begin rebuilding their lives.
