Mr Roquemore is very personable and does take the time to listen to your concerns. I’m satisfied how he handled my issue and the outcome. I was able to successfully recover my earnest money with his help. Would surely recommend him and use this firm again in the future. M BApril 2, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My consultation with Mr. Roquemore was invaluable for the advice given on the next step or actions that could be taken in regards to my matter even though it was not something his firm would be able to pursue. This was not due to their capability, but their was a much more direct path to results. This was refreshing. In this day and age someone providing guidance even though it would not benefit them financially is rare. K WoodMarch 21, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Mr. Roquemore, I just wanted to thank you so much for the guidance you provided in our conversation last week regarding my unlawful foreclosure suit. Your suggestion of moves I could make if I continued to represent myself (which ended up being my only option going forward) we're so helpful! I was able to draft a response to the defendants motion for traditional and no evidence summary judgement and e-file. I'm currently waiting on the judge to rule on the motion but I feel confident in my answer. I also started discovery and filed my first RFA's to the the defendant. I have my motion for summary judgement drafted and ready to file pending the defendants answer to RFA's. I'm getting my pre trial disclosure drafted and researching the expert testimony I should obtain as well as compiling a list of witnesses, deposition questions, and documents I may need to subpoena. I honestly was ready to give up last week but after speaking to you i got back up and decided to push forward. I studied and researched all weekend and I feel a lot more confident in my abilities to continue on with this case. I just wanted to say thank you and let you know that the small gesture of kindness you provided me in the form of pointing me in the direction to get back on path made such a huge impact in my decision to not give up or throw in the towel on this case. I'm not certain I'll be victorious but I know for sure that I can say I didn't give up! Thanks for being kind to me. I hope you have a great day!

In Texas, a breach of contract occurs when one party fails to fulfill their obligations under a valid contract without a reasonable excuse. A breach can be minor, not stopping the contract from being fulfilled, or material, rendering the contract useless and allowing the other party to stop performing and sue. To prove a breach of contract, a plaintiff must demonstrate: (1) a valid contract existed; (2) they performed or were ready to perform their obligations; (3) the defendant breached the contract; and (4) the plaintiff suffered damages as a result of the breach.
To successfully claim a breach of contract, one must prove the existence of a valid contract, performance by the plaintiff, a breach by the defendant, and resulting damages. These four elements are the foundation of a breach of contract claim.
In Texas, you generally have four years from the date of the breach to file a lawsuit for breach of contract. This time limit is known as the statute of limitations. However, certain circumstances, such as fraud or a mutual mistake, can extend or pause this timeframe.
A material breach is a significant failure to perform a contract that undermines its main purpose, while a minor breach is a less serious failure that doesn't fundamentally disrupt the contract's purpose. A material breach can result in the non-breaching party being excused from their obligations and potentially able to terminate the contract, whereas a minor breach may only lead to compensation for damages.
In Texas, a court can award several remedies for breach of contract, including monetary damages (compensatory, specific performance, liquidated, consequential, and punitive), equitable relief (rescission, restitution, reformation, injunction), and attorney's fees.
Yes, in Texas, you can typically recover attorney's fees in a breach of contract case, but it depends on several factors. Generally, you can recover fees if the contract itself includes a provision for them, or if a state statute allows it.
Yes, liquidated damages clauses are generally enforceable in Texas, but only if they are a reasonable forecast of actual damages and not a penalty. Texas courts will not enforce a liquidated damages clause if it appears to be designed to punish a party rather than compensate them for losses.
Common defenses: lack of capacity, fraud in formation, mutual mistake, prior material breach by the plaintiff, impossibility, waiver, accord and satisfaction, statute of frauds, and limitations.
If you suspect a breach of contract, first thoroughly review the contract and gather all relevant documentation. Then, attempt to communicate with the other party to discuss the issue and explore potential solutions. If a resolution cannot be reached, consider seeking legal advice and exploring options like mediation or arbitration before potentially filing a lawsuit
Yes, you can often resolve a breach of contract without filing a lawsuit. Many options for resolving disputes exist, including mediation and arbitration, which can be more cost-effective and faster than litigation.
In Texas, lost profits damages are calculated to compensate a business for the net income it would have earned had there been no breach or disruption of operations. This involves estimating the "but for" scenario (what would have been) and subtracting actual results from that projection. The calculation must be done with reasonable certainty, meaning the amount of loss should be based on objective facts, figures, or data.
Yes, the Texas Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) significantly impacts breach of contract claims, particularly for transactions involving the sale of goods. The UCC provides specific rules and remedies for such breaches, which differ from those found in general contract law.
