Do You Really Need Local Counsel for Your Texas Deal?

My partner, Alfred M. Meyerson, recently addressed this question in a very informative article in The Metropolitan Corporate Counsel. Besides explaining why you really do need a Texas lawyer working on your Texas real estate deal, Alfie also summarizes some important idiosyncracies of Texas real estate law that you should be aware of if you're doing a deal in the state. I highly recommend this article for your review. Check it out by clicking on this Texas counsel article link.
