What type of attorney? Criminal Defense, State Prosecutor, Real Estate? Civil trial lawyer? Insurance company lawyer, securities counsel, slip and fall, DUI specialists, Social Security Disability? Maybe a Constitutional Law Professor like Barack Obama could offer a definitive answer. Everyone without a current Texas bar card or temporary admittance by the State Supreme Court to practice law in Texas, must post IANAL at the bottom of their post or they are not allowed to comment? Or IANALLTPITX...I am not a lawyer licensed to practice in Texas. Or I have a JD but never passed the Bar. Or I am a law professor but haven’t kept my bar card up because it’s too expensive.Abraham wrote: ↑Thu Sep 20, 2018 12:47 pm How many here are attorneys?
Any, other than Charles? I'm sure there must be a few, especially on this thread.
Maybe with all the legal opinions offered are attorneys, but may they're the dreaded 'sidewalk and/or jailhouse lawyers'...who're famed for their accurate legal opinions.
If, you are an attorney and offer legal opinions, great, but if you're simply espousing opinions, please, qualify as some of us find it laughable to read if you don't post, 'my opinion' but state things like you really know...
End of sarcastic rant .
I suspect you could ask two very qualified Texas attorneys some of the same questions that come up in the Forum and get the opposite answers. Or ask Ken Paxton and the Travis County DA if a zoo is a school and get the opposite answers.
I am a landlord in Texas with several active leased properties in Denton and Tarrant County. When I discuss similar issues with my RE attorney (who likes guns by the way), he often says research it yourself and then if you still feel the cost of professional advice is worth the dollar risk that you are taking, pay me and I’ll write you an opinion which I will defend in court (for a fee).
