For Immediate Release
Today, January 13th, the law firm of Bridgford, Gleason & Artinian filed a complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court against Southern California Edison Company (“SCE”) regarding the Eaton Fire, which encompasses areas of Altadena and Pasadena.
Richard Bridgford of Bridgford, Gleason & Artinian stated: “Based upon our investigation, our discussions with various consultants, the public statements of SCE, and the video evidence of the fire’s origin, we believe that the Eaton Fire was ignited because of SCE’s failure to de-energize its overhead wires which traverse Eaton Canyon—despite a red flag PDS wind warning issued by the national weather service the day before the ignition of the fire. Our hearts go out to the many victims of this and the other Los Angeles fires. We will be holding informational meetings about the claims we are pursuing on behalf of victims of the Eaton Fire at the Pasadena Hilton next to the Pasadena Convention Center on January 18th and 19th at 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM each day.”
