Free legal help for evacueesPhoto: Pixabay stock imageA Penticton law firm is offering free legal advice to Bald Range evacuees who may have questions about their insurance policies. In an email to Castanet, Davie & Associates lawyer Jason Poon they were saddened by the situation in Summerland, watching the impact on local families and businesses. "As people begin the difficult process of rebuilding, many will also have questions about their insurance coverage and what their policies provide," Poon wrote. "Dealing with an insurance claim can be confusing and stressful at the best of times, and we want to do what we can to help our neighbours through this process. "They will be providing a free initial consultation to anyone affected by the wildfire who has questions or concerns about their insurance. Typically, a free consultation is only offered on their personal injury or estate litigation files, explained Poon. "Often, with other civil litigation matters we require a retainer before we're prepared to get involved," Poon said. "We're prepared to offer victims of the Bald Range wildfire an initial consultation without a retainer. "There is no obligation to retain the firm, he said. "Our hope is simply to provide people with some guidance about their rights and options at a particularly difficult time. Where we can help, we will. "Anyone who would like to speak with them can contact Davie & Associatesonline here.
