Nosotros la Gente: Seeking Order in Chaos - HPCC Claims Office
Gerald Singleton, Managing Partner at Singleton Schreiber, was featured by the Las Vegas Optic in an article titled “Nosotros la Gente: Seeking Order in Chaos – HPCC Claims Office,” published in February 2026.
In the article, Singleton provides updates to Hermits Peak/Calf Canyon Fire victims during a community meeting hosted by Singleton Schreiber. He addresses client concerns regarding delays in the FEMA Claims Office, explains recent administrative developments involving its leadership, and outlines the potential timeline for compensation if new leadership is appointed.
The piece focuses on ongoing challenges within the FEMA Claims Office, including administrative leave for senior officials, unresolved total‑loss claims, and delays tied to the appeal process for non‑economic damages. The discussion highlights broader concerns about transparency, accountability, and the pace of federal compensation for fire victims.
“When you have a director who receives a half million dollars and other cases don’t move along, that’s all you need to know,” Singleton observed.
