In response to the growing need for legal resources by Hurricane Sandy victims, Touro Law Center has launched a disaster relief clinic.

Visiting professor Benjamin Rajotte, recently hired as the clinic’s director, is working with students to represent clients pro bono. They are providing legal help with insurance claims, environmental remediation, government assistance, insurance and consumer fraud concerns, and other storm-related legal matters. Students working in the clinic interview and counsel clients, negotiate on their behalf and prepare cases for presentation to courts.
