Re: bought a lemon

Thanks for your question. Although your vehicle probably does not qualify under the Texas lemon law (because it was used and purchased from an individual), it sounds like you certainly have at least a breach of contract case against the seller. You can file suit in a justice court (as long as the total value of damages sought is under $10k and you are looking to collect money only, not an order to have him repair the vehicle).

If you would like assistance with this or to talk to a local attorney about your situation, feel free to give me a call. Thanks. nemeclaw dot com
