## Resource

Los Angeles County is launching a probe into Farmers Insurance’s handling of fire survivor claims, alleging violations of California’s Unfair Competition Law amid reports of delays, denied testing/cleanup payments, and underpayments. Survivors—many whose homes weren’t destroyed—are still grappling with toxic contamination and blocked access to their properties, forced to choose between unsafe living conditions or financial collapse. Supervisors demand accountability, noting Farmers had ample time to act, while the county warns of legal consequences if unlawful practices are confirmed. This follows a similar lawsuit against State Farm, and as FEMA assistance remains stalled, Congresswoman Judy Chu urges Governor Newsom to extend aid programs for another year.
