can I sue the neighbor who started the fire?

[Hannah Giffen]

the neighbor who owns their own property was gone to work one day when a friend of theirs was visiting started a fire that got out of control (also was no fires allowed at the time) and burned the buildings on the place I am renting. Now I have been evicted and was allowed a very short time to try to clean up the whole mess and move. I am being sued now and I think I should sue the ones who is responsible.
