• Can an employeer decide to pay sick days without notifing employee which is on workers comp. leave?

  Asked in Marble Falls, TX

  I have suffered a Traumatic brain injury from a fall at work in icy conditions on a concrete parking lot on 01/28/2026. The Corporate Safety Director told Sharon that it was a significant other while I was in the ICU. This was not a workers' compensation claim, and I would use the AD&D policy, which only pays $50,000.00.

• Does a Texas LLC need an attorney for a Burnet County JP appeal/bench trial?

  Asked in Burnet, TX

  I own an LLC in Texas. The company won a JP/small claims case involving a residential gutter installation dispute, but the plaintiff appealed to the county court in Burnet County, Texas. The case is now set for a bench trial, and the plaintiff has hired an attorney. The work at issue was done before I became the current owner of the company. I need to know: Can a Texas LLC appear in county court through its owner, or must it be represented by a licensed Texas attorney? If the plaintiff appeals from the JP court, is the county court trial a de novo trial? What are the most urgent first steps before the bench trial? Should we consider filing a counterclaim for unpaid invoice, breach of contract, attorney’s fees, or another claim if the company has damages? Should we request a continuance if we need time to hire counsel or tender the claim to our insurance carrier? Does my status as the new owner help protect me personally if I was not the owner when the work was performed? The claim amount is approximately $15,000, so I am trying to keep legal costs under control while still protecting the LLC.

  Asked in Elmendorf, TX

  It's been about 4 months since my case settled, and my attorneys won't release my portion of the funds, contingent that I sign a full release of the distribution. How can I get them to release the funds without waiving my rights to contest any fees? Is this normal?
