Guardianship
Second, estate planning involves a number of complicated areas of law, both state and federal. A good estate planning lawyer will analyze your needs based on Texas estate and trust laws, federal and Texas tax laws, Texas guardianship and conservator laws, and Texas family law. You may be able to get a basic estate plan using a kit, but you wonâ€™t be able to tailor these documents based on your needs and current law.

DUI/DWI
Distracted d rivers who text or talk on their cell phone while driving are putting other drivers at risk for a car accident. Even if a person looks away for less than a second to text on their phone or reach for something in their car, they can cause a rear-end collision. Some experts equate talking on the cell phone and driving to drunk driving. The careless driving and negligence of distracted drivers has even become illegal in some states. In Texas, recent legislation has been passed making it now illegal to text and drive. Reckless driving not only causes minor car accidents but serious and even fatal accidents.
Wrongful Death
At Forbes & Forbes, we have been helping fatal accident victims since 1971. We represent families throughout New Mexico and Texas in wrongful death lawsuits on behalf of a deceased family member. The
Traffic Violations
In some cases, bicycle accidents are the result of negligence or error on the part of the rider. However, in other cases, bicycle accidents occur because of the negligence of another party, such as the driver of a motor vehicle. In such cases, the party at fault may be responsible for compensating the victim or the victim’s family. For example, if the driver of the vehicle was speeding, not paying attention or otherwise breaking traffic laws, he or she may be held liable for the accident.
Forgery
The lawsuit must specify the grounds on which the will is being challenged. Under Texas law, a will can be contested on the basis of revocation (i.e., the will have been revoked, often by the execution of a later will), lack of testamentary capacity, improper execution, undue influence, forgery, fraud, or mistake.Â
Hit and Run
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage pays your expenses if youâ€™re in an accident caused by a driver with no insurance or without sufficient insurance. It also pays in the event of a hit-and-run accident. Insurance companies are required to offer UM/UIM coverage.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Formation
Business Disputes
There are many ways that contract disputes come up, both in daily life and in business dealings. If you are facing a contract dispute, or simply want to make sure that the potential for such a dispute is minimized, a skilled El Paso contract lawyer can help.
Business Transactions
Our law firm takes a detail-oriented approach to drafting documents that protect you in commercial transactions. We regularly provide our Texas clients with the following...
Construction Contracts
Once a lien has been properly and timely filed and served, it can be enforced. The deadline to enforce a lien is 1 year for all construction contracts entered into on or after 1/1/22. In most cases, filing a lien or sending a notice of intent to enforce the lien is enough to secure payment.

Wrongful Termination
Lawsuits filed by and against businesses can be costly and time-consuming. A skilled El Paso business law attorney can aggressively represent your interests in court, whether the matter involves a breach of contract, wrongful termination, contractor-subcontractor disputes, or a range of other commercial litigation matters. Forbes & Forbes has advocated for companies of all sizes in business litigation, from family-owned stores and restaurants to contractors, individual business owners, and large corporations.
Employment Contract
A covenant not to compete must (1) be part of an otherwise valid employment agreement; (2) be reasonable, and not impose greater restrictions on an employee than is necessary to protect a businessâ€™s legitimate interests. In other words, as long as the restrictions contained in a non-compete agreement are reasonable, it will be upheld in court. Restrictions that are overly broad in location, time, or scope of activity may result in litigation.
Employment Litigation
Stewart Forbes has acted as a mediator and arbitrator in employment law cases. One important area of his practice is providing mediation and arbitration services to the public in employment disputes.
Non-compete Agreement
In Texas, covenants not to compete (non-compete agreements) are legal. However, in order to be enforceable, they must meet certain requirements.

Real Estate Litigation
Real estate law and construction law frequently overlap during the planning, building, remodeling and financing stages. Our law firm can help any party with legal needs related to residential or commercial real estate building or remodeling projects.
Construction Litigation
Texas construction law can be complex, spanning a range of areas. No matter what your issue may be, working with an experienced attorney can help you achieve a favorable resolution in the most efficient, cost-effective way possible. Our firm has represented contractors, subcontractors, businesses, and other entities in a variety of construction disputes.
Real Estate Transactions
When we draft contracts or complete real estate transactions, we take pride in our timely delivery and we know what it takes to execute error-free documents. The types of transactional work we provide to the real estate market and construction industry includes...
Eminent Domain
Boundary disputes, too, require significant legal assistance to resolve. Typically, a legal provider assists clients in real estate disputes revolving around contractual issues with boundaries, membership and eminent domain. Fortunately, adequate law support exists to cover real estate litigation surrounding these areas.
Landlord-Tenant Disputes
Property Damage
Because of the size difference between an average passenger vehicle and a large delivery truck, these types of accidents are known for causing serious injuries. If you have been hurt in a crash with a FedEx truck, a UPS truck, or another type of delivery vehicle, you may be able to file a lawsuit against the at-fault driver, their employer, and/or their insurance companies. Through this type of claim, you can seek financial compensation for property damage, medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses.

Personal Injury
Generally, workplace injuries – including those on oil fields – are covered by the Texas workersâ€™ compensation system. However, there may be situations where you can file a personal injury lawsuit for your losses. If your employer does not carry workersâ€™ compensation insurance or a third party is responsible for your injuries, you may be able to file a personal injury claim.
Medical Malpractice
You are entitled to file a personal injury claim (lawsuit) whenever you believe you have been injured because of the negligence of another person, business, organization, or entity. The injury could be related to anything from a car accident to a loose tile on a walkway that causes you to slip and fall, including medical malpractice.
Auto Accidents
Social Security Disability

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Probate litigation can be complex, costly, and time-consuming. In some situations, however, a will contest may be necessary to ensure that the wishes of the deceased person (decedent) are followed. Careful estate planning can often help to avoid this type of litigation.
Wills
Under Texas law, there are specific requirements for the formation of a valid last will and testament. For both holographic (handwritten) and attested wills, the person making the will (testator) must have legal capacity, be of sound mind, and intend to make a will. An attested will also require at least two witnesses, and may include a self-proving affidavit.
Trusts
Each estate plan should be written based on the specific needs of the individual and their family. Certain aspects are critical for almost every estate plan, while others — like a special needs trust — may only be necessary for some individuals. Our law firm will thoroughly analyze your situation to help you develop an estate plan that works for you.
Power of Attorney
Without an estate plan, the government makes many of these decisions for you through the rules of intestate succession (if you die without a will ) or the conservatorship process (if you become incapacitated without a durable power of attorney or healthcare directive).
Probate
To ensure the best possible outcome while navigating the probate process, contact an attorney experienced in probate law to help you through this sometimes stressful life event.

Foreclosure
We represent builders and property owners, lenders and borrowers, contractors, and subcontractors who have legal matters of any kind related to residential and commercial property, including title, ownership or possession issues with a home or business property. We help clients avoid foreclosure by working out the debt before they lose the property, bringing quick and effective resolutions to foreclosure issues. We would like to help you if you are in default or you have received a foreclosure notice. If you are a lender, we can help you to navigate the technical procedure involved in foreclosure of real property.
Tax Law
Also good news, over 90 percent of all Texas estates are exempt from federal estate taxes. Under current federal tax law, estates with a value of less than $5.4 million are exempt from estate taxes.
Debt Collection
Forbes & Forbes represents creditors nationwide in commercial and professional collections. From our El Paso, Texas, law office, our El Paso commercial collections attorneys handle all aspects of debt collections on behalf of businesses, be they large or small. We have provided business debt collection services for many years, and we take pride in our timely execution and ability to achieve meaningful results.
