Protect Your Property

Last year’s disaster may be over as a weather event, but for many families, the legal and financial recovery continues. Questions about home ownership, FEMA decisions, wills, and what happens to property after a death can determine whether a family keeps a home or faces years of uncertainty. A free legal clinic coming to Leander on August 4 (2026) aims to help eligible residents address those issues. We’re joined on the podcast by Brittanny Gomez of Texas RioGrande Legal Aid, a nonprofit law firm providing free civil legal services to qualifying Texans. We’ll discuss the upcoming Protect Your Property Clinic, what residents can expect, and why property documentation is an important part of disaster preparedness and recovery.
