    powerful story. thanks propublica and wapo for exposing this.

    We sued a Victoria, TX apartment complex cuz it rented out residents' homes while they were in Harvey shelters and took their stuff. Turns out it may be a part of a huge shell operation. Great story!

    A condo association in El Paso sold an elderly woman's home for $4,000 because she was late paying her late fees. Snowballing late-fee schemes are used by condo associations all over Texas. We've filed suit to rein them in.
