Marshall Fire Investigation Update: Announced 6/8/2023 by the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office – The Marshall Fire Was Started by a Residential Burn and an Xcel Power Line.
The investigation into the cause of the fire determined it started at two separate locations—one at 5325 Eldorado Springs Drive and the other near Marshall Mesa Trailhead.
Xcel Energy power lines were found to be involved in the second fire, but no criminal charges have been filed. In response to the devastation of this fire, Colorado Governor Jared Polis signed several bills into law designed for fire recovery and prevention. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) also approved $4.3 million in funding to cover 90 percent of the recovery costs.
The Marshall Fire destroyed over 1,000 homes, burned 6,080 acres, and caused 35,000 people to be evacuated from their homes. Two people died in the fire, and thousands of animals perished as well. The Marshall Fire caused $2 billion in damages.
If a third party is found to be responsible for causing the fire, you may be entitled to damages that your insurance — even good insurance — won’t cover. In addition to underinsured homes, most insurance policies don’t cover natural vegetation that is not part of the landscaping, or compensation for you or your family for the emotional upheaval caused by the Marshall Fire.

Common Misconceptions:
Who Is Eligible to File a Claim?
Marshall Fire survivors may not realize they can file a claim. Here are some common misconceptions about who is eligible for recovery:
False: Only Business Owners and Homeowners Can File Claims
It is NOT true that you can only file a claim if you owned a business or home that burned down.
You can file a claim for a number of reasons, including the loss of a rental home, personal property loss, and adverse health effects caused by the fire.
False: Only Insured Individuals Can File Claims
It is NOT true that only those with insurance policies can file claims.
This is a court claim against a utility company that is unrelated to your insurance coverage. You can file a claim whether or not your losses have been compensated by insurance.
False: Only Documented Losses Can Be Filed
It is NOT true that you must provide proof for every item lost in a fire.
You may be eligible to file regardless of whether you have the relevant documentation. In fact, the simple truth that you had to evacuate the fire may be sufficient to support your claim.
False: Only Cases of Wrongful Death and Injury Can Be Filed
It is NOT true that you can only file a claim if you have lost a family member or suffered a physical injury.
Other causes for submitting a claim may include fire-related damage to your home or loss of personal items.
