OM Secures Recoveries for Marshall Fire Clients as Part of $640 Million Global Settlement

Ogborn Mihm represented dozens of victims devastated by the 2021 Marshall Fire, securing recoveries for our clients as part of a global $640 million settlement. The settlement resolves claims against Xcel Energy and other defendants arising from Colorado’s most destructive wildfire, which destroyed more than 1,000 homes and caused personal and financial loss throughout Boulder County.

The resolution, reached on the eve of trial, ensures meaningful compensation and closure without years of additional litigation, allowing affected families and property owners to move forward after this historic wildfire. The firm’s commitment to compassionate, assertive advocacy was central in supporting families through every phase of this process.

For wildfire victims, recovery requires more than rebuilding. It demands accountability, financial stability, and resilience in the face of complex and emotionally taxing disaster litigation.
