With every disaster there are legal considerations that come to the fore. In this podcast we explore the experience of one litigator advising FEMA Incident Management Teams (IMAT) and also dealing with damages and reimbursement processes for individuals who own property.
For two decades, LLRA, LLC owner Linda Litke served the United States, first in the U.S. Navy and then as a senior attorney within the Department of Homeland Security/Federal Emergency Management Agency. Her work placed her at the center of some of the nation’s most complex emergencies, disasters, and national security incidents—first as Deputy Associate Chief Counsel for Louisiana and Mississippi, where she led multiple legal offices across the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina, and later as a Trial Attorney handling litigation tied to Public Assistance projects and the National Flood Insurance Program.
Her final federal role for the last six years—Legal Counsel to the National Incident Management Assistance Team (NIMAT–Red)—was among the most demanding in the emergency‑response world. As part of a small rapidly deployable federal team, she provided real‑time legal guidance to senior officials during national security and catastrophic incidents, often deploying within hours to support unified command operations on the ground.
