Texas DTPA Forms and Practice Guide
by David G. Tekell
274 Forms in CD and in Print With Supporting Law and Procedure
Defendants are fighting harder than ever. Revisions to the Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act continue to give consumers more hurdles to overcome. The courts are strict in determining which DTPA cases fit within the "laundry list" pleading provisions. A "knowing" violation is required for all mental anguish damages. And in some cases, damage caps may eliminate DTPA protection altogether.
Obtain practical, proven tools for handling these tricky cases in Tekell's Texas DTPA Forms and Practice Guide.
You receive a comprehensive collection of forms, from custom Insurance Code interrogatories and pattern deposition questions through jury charges to laundry list questions and trial objection checklists. You will also find detailed legal discussions and step-by-step procedures in every major consumer law category, including:
