FAIR Plan Partial Loss and Smoke Damage Claims
For more than a decade Kerley Schaffer has been the state’s leader in challenging FAIR Plan wildfire claim practices. The devastating fires in Los Angeles have led to an avalanche of bad faith by FAIR Plan.

After an intensive search for a partner, we concluded Edelson’s unique expertise in fire cases, and its dogged determination on behalf of their clients, gives us the best chance to take on FAIR Plan.
