Wildfire victims file claims under federal law as FEMA compensation process moves slowly

Brian Colón, managing partner for Singleton Schreiber in New Mexico, was recently mentioned in a KUNM News article, "Wildfire victims file claims under federal law as FEMA compensation process moves slowly" on April 9th, 2024. Colón highlighted the sluggish progress of FEMA's compensation program, which has disbursed only a fraction of the allocated funds two years post-disaster. Emphasizing the urgency, Colón underscored the importance of preserving victims' rights through legal recourse, urging prompt action from FEMA to expedite the claims process. The article also noted FEMA's recent expansion in Mora County to enhance claim processing capabilities in the hardest-hit areas.
