Expected
The notice says nothing is paid until the court approves the settlement, which it considers on January 5, 2027, and any appeals are resolved.
Read off the official notice, in its own words. These dates slip — an appeal can move a distribution by a year or more — so treat it as the administrator's plan rather than a schedule.

Who may be eligible
The owners and managers of The Reserve at LaVista Walk in Atlanta have agreed to an $8,450,000 settlement over the fire of November 10, 2023. If you lived there on that day you may be eligible: adults take an equal share of a $1,300,000 displacement pool plus a proportional share of a property loss pool, and anyone who was under 18 that day is paid a flat $2,500 covering all their claims. Claim forms, objections and opt-out requests are all due by November 22, 2026, and the court considers final approval on January 5, 2027. Filing on the official settlement site is free, and the administrator and the court decide every claim.
It is limited to Georgia. Covered: The Reserve at LaVista Walk apartments, Atlanta.
Only the official administrator or agency decides who is eligible. Read the official notice before filing, and file only if you believe you meet its criteria.
How much it may pay
Share of a $8.45M fund. Every figure here is an estimate from public materials, not a guarantee: many settlements pay pro rata or only after a claims review, so final amounts commonly land well below the advertised maximum.
The $8,450,000 fund is split, after court-approved deductions, into a $1,300,000 Displacement Pool and a Property Loss Pool made up of the rest. Adult residents take an equal share of the Displacement Pool, so the amount moves with how many valid claims arrive, plus a proportional share of the Property Loss Pool. Every resident under 18 on the day of the fire is paid a flat $2,500 covering all their claims. Subrogated insurers file on a separate form. The online claim form opens with a LoginID and PIN, and a downloaded form can be emailed or posted instead.
