Get the justice you deserve
Having your home and property destroyed by a fire or other means is a traumatic event that can forever change your life. Losing your home upends your life and your stability. In addition to losing your home, you lose precious possessions that can never be replaced.
Even if you do not lose your home, having your property destroyed by the carelessness of another or ravaged by a fire caused by the actions of another is devastating. If you are a Texas small business owner, farmer, or rancher this destruction can destroy your livelihood.

Clinton recognizes the impacts of property damage. He understands that a wildfire in the rural parts of Texas dramatically impacts those in its path and leaves a lasting effect on lives and livelihoods.
