Law Firm Seeks Clients to Sue SoCal Edison Over Silverado Fire
A San Diego law firm is trying to drum up clients to sue Southern California Edison (SCE) over damages resulting from the Silverado Fire in Orange and San Bernardino counties, claiming the utility company has admitted its own responsibility for the fire starting.
But the law firm may be overplaying its hand, says SCE spokesperson Chris Abel.
Abel told The Epoch Times an SCE letter sent to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has gotten media attention, but that report was standard procedure and reflects SCE’s diligence to identify any potential causes of the fire, not an admission of fault.
