The Eaton Fire started on Tuesday, January 7, 2025, between Altadena Drive and Midwick Drive in the Altadena/Pasadena area. Arid conditions and high winds caused the rapid spread of the fire, destroying homes and businesses while prompting mass evacuations.
As of Wednesday, February 5, 2025, the fire has scorched 14,021 acres, destroyed over 9,400 structures, and damaged an additional 1074 buildings. More than 39,000 structures remain under threat.
Additionally, seventeen civilian deaths have been reported, and 9 firefighters have sustained injuries as a result of the fire. Firefighters continue to battle the blaze in challenging conditions, achieving 100% containment.

The Eaton Fire is still under investigation; however, there is reason to believe that a high-voltage power line may have ignited the fire. According to ABC Los Angeles, witness accounts and surveillance video suggest that a downed power line owned by Southern California Edison (SCE) may have sparked the fire.

I highly recommend CaseyGerry, especially managing partner David S. Casey, Jr. After a tragic house fire claimed my daughter’s life, the attorneys at CaseyGerry provided me with compassionate support and worked diligently against the Homeowner’s Insurance Company. Their attentive approach gave me confidence during my darkest moments. Thanks to their efforts, we received the maximum award, which allows us to access health insurance for therapy, support my daughter’s education, and even purchase a home. We now feel a sense of peace and gratitude towards CaseyGerry and the team.
I was impressed with the fact that a competitor attorney recommended Casey Gerry to me for their meticulous cases preparation, From the very start, team members with specific skills and duties were assigned to my case and provided me with all the necessary guidance and support for each phase of the process keeping me informed and aware of the details and requirements throughout the whole process until it was settled and resolved to our complete satisfaction. I will recommend Casey Gerry to my family and friends and to anyone needing proper and effective representation.
I had lost all hope before making the call to CaseyGerry Law Firm. Six members of my family had lost everything in the Camp Fire. From the initial consult, there was professionalism and compassion throughout. Paralegal, Yolanda really carried the torch. Always prompt with a response and speaking with a smile in her voice. Her kindness and diligence have made such a difference in my life and I know I have met a true friend.
I am very grateful to CaseyGerry for making this process seamless. I will never forget all of the effort and understanding I have received.
I highly recommend this excellent law firm.
