Girling Law Firm, PLLC - Plano, TX

Aggressive Legal Counsel for Texas Landlords and Property Investors

Real estate investing and property management in North Texas offer immense opportunities, but non-paying or destructive tenants can quickly jeopardize your revenue stream. Girling Law Firm, PLLC is a dedicated landlord representation practice serving Plano, Collin County, and the broader Dallas Fort Worth metroplex. Founded in 2010 by real estate attorney Marc Girling, our firm helps residential and commercial landlords assert their legal property rights with precision and authority. If you need to hire an attorney to handle a difficult tenant or recover possession of your rental property swiftly, our legal team provides decisive action from day one.

Expedited Texas Eviction Representation

The Texas eviction process is governed by strict statutory deadlines, notice requirements, and technical courthouse rules. Even minor procedural errors in delivering a Notice to Vacate can result in case dismissals, forcing property owners to restart the legal process while unpaid rent mounts. When property managers need a lawyer urgently to resolve tenancy violations, Girling Law Firm moves rapidly through justice of the peace courts and county appeals courts. Our eviction capabilities include:

• Drafting and formally serving compliant Notice to Vacate documents under Texas property statutes.
• Filing eviction petitions and representing owners at justice of the peace eviction hearings across Collin County.
• Managing county court de novo eviction appeals and defending against tenant counterclaims.
• Executing writs of possession alongside local constables to regain physical custody of residential and commercial properties.
• Pursuing unpaid rent judgments, property damage restitution, and post-judgment collection actions.

Bulletproof Lease Agreements and Contract Drafting

The most effective defense against future tenant disputes is an airtight rental contract. Off-the-shelf internet leases routinely fail to safeguard landlords under ever-evolving Texas property codes. When landlords seek to find a lawyer to draft or review custom residential real estate contracts, our firm prepares specialized documents addressing unauthorized occupants, pet violations, property maintenance, security deposit terms, and late fee limits. We ensure your leases comply fully with fair housing rules while maximizing owner protections.

Property Shelters, Anonymity Trusts, and Investor Asset Protection

Owning rental real estate inherently exposes investors to premises liability lawsuits and aggressive creditor actions. Girling Law Firm assists real estate investors in structuring property shelters, land trusts, and anonymity trusts that keep owner names off public county deed records. Combined with business formation strategies including series limited liability companies, we build multi-layered legal barriers that safeguard personal wealth from rental property liabilities.
