Wildfire lawsuits miss the mark on California’s real insurance crisis, insurance brokers say
“There’s a disconnect in California with some well-meaning consumer groups who don’t understand that insurance companies can’t continuously lose money and stay in business,” Jones said. “Instead of forcing carriers to subsidize wildfire losses through litigation, we should be focusing on prevention and mitigation—on hardening homes, building defensible zones, and using ember-resistant vents. Government also has a significant part to play in prevention and response.”
