Sewer Backup? Your City May Be Responsible.
A sudden sewage flood can ruin your home and your peace of mind. If a municipal sewer system fails due to poor maintenance, aging pipes, or faulty design, the government entity may be legally obligated to pay for your damages.

We’ve helped homeowners and businesses recover for property loss, remediation costs, and emotional distress. In fact, Kramer Trial Lawyers secured $6.8 million in sewer-related claims for clients across Southern California.
