Who May Pay for Maui Wildfire Property Damage

Any person or entity legally liable under negligence, gross negligence, products liability, or other similar tort theories may owe you a recovery for your Maui wildfire property damage. Investigation is turning up evidence supporting several potential theories. Unreasonably dangerous electric lines and equipment, either outdated or poorly located or maintained, may have started the wildfires. Officials may have carelessly or recklessly failed to use emergency notification systems, evacuation plans, and fire suppression systems. Further investigation will likely turn up evidence supporting other theories.

Thus, electric utilities like Hawaiian Electric Company, Hawaiian Electric Industries, and Maui Electric Company, along with the County of Maui and other local governments, may have liability, along with their contractors and suppliers.
