An article in DNA.info describes how MFY attorneys and Cardozo Law School students teamed up to help Hurricane Sandy victims. Students assisted MFY attorneys in helping clients while earning hours toward their requirement of 50 hours of pro bono service.
In the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, MFY and Cardozo Law School set up the Disaster Relief Law Field Clinic. By April 22, 2013, when the clinic held its final session, six students had worked with MFY attorneys to provide assistance to more than 500 hurricane victims.
