LA County Sues State Farm Over Palisades And Eaton Fire Claims Los Angeles County filed a lawsuit Monday against State Farm, accusing the insurance giant of mishandling claims from homeowners affected by the devastating Palisades and Eaton fires. The county alleges that some wildfire survivors faced unreasonable delays, inadequate investigations and difficulty receiving benefits they were entitled to under their policies. The lawsuit comes as thousands of Los Angeles-area homeowners continue rebuilding following the January 2025 fires. State Farm has faced separate scrutiny from California regulators over its handling of wildfire claims.
