Fall 2018 California Wildfires Helping Handbook
“This handbook provides an overview of some issues that individuals, families, and small businesses may face as a result of the fires that broke out in Northern and Southern California in the fall of 2018. While fires occurred throughout the state, this handbook focuses particularly on Butte, Ventura, and Los Angeles counties because, as of the time of this publication, these were the only counties for which the federal government has issued a Major Disaster Declaration, triggering certain assistance to individuals.” Fall 2018 California Wildfires Helping Handbook is current through November 20, 2018 and was developed by Morrison & Foerster LLP.
