Less than a month after lawyer Carla Krystyniak moved with her family to Houston, she witnessed firsthand the devastation caused by Hurricane Harvey as it slammed into Texas in August 2017. She is channeling that experience into a new job helping hurricane victims.
Krystyniak, who did environmental law for the city of Philadelphia before moving to Houston, recently started a two-year fellowship as one of 23 lawyers in Texas and Florida assisting victims of Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria. The lawyers are fellows with the new Disaster Recovery Legal Corps launched by Equal Justice Works, a nonprofit that aims to mobilize public interest attorneys. The fellows are assigned to various legal aid organizations in Texas and Florida.
