SoCal Connected
After the Fire
Our story focuses on Karen Reimus, a woman whose San Diego home and neighborhood were obliterated by wildfires in 2003. After a year-long battle with her insurance company, Reimus, an attorney and self-described soccer mom, became a champion on behalf of policyholders and a thorn in the side of the California insurance business. As an organizer with the consumer rights group United Policyholders, Reimus travels the country to help victims of natural disasters in their conflicts with the insurance industry.
