first off, if you cannot express yourself any better than this, you will not get far.
since you are talking about more than a small claims case this will require some serious legal work. you will have to prove it was the old guy’s fault that the house burned and you suffered damages. you will need to hire a lawyer for this.
be advised, unless you can prove this was the home owner’s fault you will likely receive nothing. this is why you should have renter’s insurance.
Simple answer: as a tenant, you are expected to carry your own renter’s insurance. Nobody else is required to or in fact even able to in most cases.
Your losses are your own, I’m afraid,. and you cannot sue anyone. Your landlord/roommate is not responsible because you chose to save a few dollars each month.
