Ellen Kaufman Wolf, founder and partner of Wolf Wallenstein, PC, was recently featured in the Daily Journal discussing how attorneys can ethically and effectively assist Los Angeles wildfire victims.
“If clients do sign up, it should be based on relationships they know and trust,” Ellen explained, emphasizing that trust and relationships should guide victims in choosing legal representation during such challenging times.
Ellen’s dedication to fire litigation comes from her own experience. Her home survived the Woolsey fire in Malibu in 2018, and she later faced a similar threat with the Palisades fire. These personal experiences inspired her to help others navigate the complex legal and insurance challenges that follow a wildfire.
“Now I have the knowledge and the expertise because I’ve been through this,” Ellen shared. “I can help people just figure out what to do and where to put their feet and what’s going to happen with the insurance and what does that process looks [sic] like.”
The article also highlights Wolf Wallenstein’s partnership with Hahn & Hahn LLP to host informational sessions for homeowners and business owners impacted by wildfires. These sessions provide practical, straightforward guidance to those dealing with the aftermath of devastating fires in California.
