Legal aid staffers and volunteer lawyers from some large firms in Texas were at booths handing out legal aid brochures on Wednesday to Hurricane Harvey victims staying at a shelter at the George R. Brown Convention Center in downtown Houston and at other large American Red Cross shelters.

“We are just trying to shove flyers in everybody’s hands and then later when they will need help, they can come see the lawyers,” said Saundra Brown, manager of the Disaster Response Unit at Lone Star Legal Aid.
