In this powerful episode of Talk Law Radio, host Todd Marquardt, cohost Shannon Salmon Haas, and guests Jayne Zirkel of the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country and Attorney Ben Kemmy tackle two important topics: community recovery after disaster and the legal complexities of wrongful death cases in Texas.

First, Jayne shares how her small but mighty team mobilized to aid flood victims in Kerr County, Comfort, and surrounding areas—covering housing, mental health, quality of life, and long-term needs. Her heartfelt stories reveal the resilience and compassion that keep the Hill Country strong.

Then, Todd and Ben dive into the legal “blind spots” many people face after a tragedy. They break down wrongful death claims, liability for camps and RV parks, governmental responsibilities, charitable immunity laws, and the nuances of liability waivers.

If you’ve ever wondered how disaster relief works behind the scenes or how the law applies when tragedy strikes, this episode delivers both insight and action steps.

The mission of Talk Law Radio is to help you discover your legal issue blind spots by listening to me talk about the law on the radio. The state bar of Texas is the state agency that governs attorney law licenses. The State Bar wants attorneys to inform the public about the law but does not want us to attempt to solve your individual legal problems upon the basis of general information. Instead, contact an attorney like Todd A. Marquardt at Marquardt Law Firm, P.C. to discuss your specific facts and circumstances of your unique situation.
