Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Texas

Unless they are Attorneys, it would be illegal for them to represent you in all Courts (felony barratry/unauthorized practice of law, aside from a violation of the Rules of the Real Estate Commission).

If you assign the claims to them, they may be able to move forward, but that is a really bad idea. Plus you may have to testify if they are contested. Any lawyer would have likely handled this for a couple of hundred dollars and maybe a percentage of what comes out of it. However, if the person is already under prior Judgments,you are wasting your time and your claims should ahve aimed at the negligence of the real estate management company if they "qualified" that tenant. WIth an active prior abstracted Judgment on file, they will get paid first even after your work, instead of you since they have priority lien on all defendant's assets. If you need to talk to a Real Estate/Litigation/Collections Lawyer for a no-fee consultation, pleae email me back so I can set it up. Thanks. USE THIS EMAIL: [email protected]
