BUSINESS WIRE

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 20, 2005--The Texas Equal Access to Justice Foundation, the largest state-based funder of legal aid in Texas, is urging victims of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita to visit www.TexasLawHelp.org, a Web site dedicated to providing individuals with free, reliable information about their civil legal rights and responsibilities.

Hurricane victims still face a variety of legal issues. Those who have lost their homes may not know if they are obligated to pay rent or mortgage payments; some are not sure how to handle insurance claims; others have lost important documents, such as financial records and government-issued identification, and do not know how to replace them.
