LOS ANGELES - (Business Wire) Claims personnel from Farmers Insurance Group of Companies® have been deployed to several Southern California cities to help customers affected by the wildfire burning in the Sylmar, Corona, Yorba Linda and Anaheim Hills areas.

Farmers Insurance asks its customers who have been ordered to evacuate or who have suffered damage, or lost their home because of the widespread wildfires, to immediately contact Farmers’ 24 hour claims hotline at:

1-800-HelpPoint (1-800-435-7764) for immediate assistance.

“We are setting up as many customer care centers as we can, to keep up with the changing path of these fires,” said Farmers State Executive Director Charles Dabelgott. “We will bring in as many resources as needed to help our customers file claims quickly and easily.”
