Many law firms are running their Puerto Rico offices on generators as Hurricane Fiona pelted the island this week with high winds and torrential rains. “The amount of water it dumped in a short amount of time was pretty impressive," said John Driscoll, who, like many plaintiffs lawyers, moved to Puerto Rico a few years ago.

Law offices in Puerto Rico are operating on generators and dealing with damage from torrential rains in the aftermath of Hurricane Fiona, which ravaged the island earlier this week.
On Sunday, the hurricane hit the island’s south side with 100-mph winds, flooding homes and leaving millions of residents without power or safe drinking water. So far, Fiona, now a Category 4 storm, has killed five people.
