Legal Bay Announces Rising Number of Major Litigation Claims for Hawaii Wildfires

Premier presettlement funding company offers cash advance lawsuit settlement money for victims to rebuild their lives while they await their day in court.

HONOLULU, June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Legal Bay, the nation's leading pre-settlement funding company, is closely monitoring developments in the ongoing litigation surrounding the devastating wildfires that ravaged Hawaii in 2023. With mounting lawsuits, billions in potential damages, and thousands of lives impacted, Legal Bay is preparing for what is expected to be a major litigation wave heading into 2026.

The historic fires, most notably in Lahaina on Maui, were among the deadliest in U.S. history. Over 100 people lost their lives, and thousands more lost their homes. Countless residents and business owners have been displaced as entire communities were reduced to ash. The scale of destruction is being compared to some of the state's worst past disasters, including Hurricane Iniki in 1992 and the Kilauea volcano eruption of 2018. But the financial and emotional toll of the 2023 wildfires may eclipse them all.

Damage estimates have soared into the multi-billion-dollar range, with lawsuits targeting utility companies, local municipalities, and landowners for negligence in fire prevention and emergency response. While many victims have already filed claims, thousands more have yet to begin the legal process either due to lack of representation, confusion over eligibility, or sheer emotional exhaustion from the trauma.

Chris Janish, CEO of Legal Bay, says, "We expect this litigation to explode in 2026. Many victims have already been waiting years for a resolution, and sadly, some may not survive long enough to see justice served. Legal Bay is here to help bridge that gap."

If you need help finding a lawyer or if you're already the plaintiff in an Hawaii wildfire lawsuit and need an immediate cash advance against your anticipated settlement award, contact Legal Bay HERE or call: 877.571.0405.

Any clients that already have an active lawsuit and need immediate cash can apply for settlement funding right now. Presettlement lawsuit funding is cash received in advance of an anticipated lawsuit settlement.

The non-recourse legal funding—sometimes referred to as loans on lawsuit or loans on lawsuits—are risk-free, as the money doesn't need to be repaid should the recipient lose their case. Therefore, the lawsuit funding isn't really a loan, but rather a cash advance. Legal-Bay funds all types of cases including personal injury, slips and falls, motor vehicle accidents, premise liability, police brutality, mass tort or commercial litigation, and many more.
