Councilman Omar Narvaez put together a virtual town hall meeting on COVID-19 on Monday, April 20.
Among the presenters was Cassandra Hernandez from the Hernandez Law Group in Dallas. She presented a good list of where to turn if you can’t pay your rent or mortgage or are facing eviction during this period of time. The following are screen captures of the various places to contact if you need assistance. For additional help, contact Hernandez through her website, your city council member through the Dallas City Hall website or your own attorney.

If the government would just be smart and do three months forgiveness on rent and mortgage is with the banks, that they’re probably going to bail out anyways, all of America in their homes and businesses would be just fine. But no, they have to play favorites, and let businesses who already have huge lines of credit with banks soak up all the money. Small business is left behind. Mom and pop shops left behind. This sucks all the way around, especially since that’s my tax dollars involved in this corporate welfare.
