It's been 3-years after the fire and many survivors are still living in temporary homes. Enough is Enough! 

​

Time to Take Constitutional Action!

Michelle Melendez is not an attorney but has studied constitutional rights and will help guide you through the following process:

​

Create a Presumptive Letter

A Presumptive Letter is prepared and sent to the appropriate parties, such as the Governor, Building Department, or other organizations involved in delaying or preventing the rebuilding of Lahaina's homes, businesses, and properties.

The letter is sent to all parties who may be named in a future legal action and serves as formal notice of your claims and concerns, an important part of due process.

​

Prepare a Notarized Affidavit of Truth

A Notarized Affidavit of Truth is a sworn statement describing the facts of your situation, including delays, hardships, damages, and other relevant experiences.

​

Each affidavit is individually signed, notarized, and sent to the appropriate recipients. The more survivors who document their experiences, the stronger the collective record becomes.

​

Record Your Affidavit

Learn how to record your affidavit with the County Clerk so it becomes part of the public record.

Having these sworn affidavits recorded creates a documented record that may be useful to attorneys and others if legal proceedings occur in the future.
