By virtue of our substantial knowledge of the legal authority governing the manifold professional licenses recognized in Texas, we successfully mediated a commercial services contract dispute. Just before mediation, we devised a legal theory, which revealed said contract to have been illegal and void, due to Defendant (“R.V.”) lacking the statutorily-required licensure to perform the commercial services contracted for. Because Decedent (“R.G.”) was not aware that Defendant was not properly licensed, E.G. reserved a viable claim to recover under the void contract.
