Texas Debt Law

Business debt

Can my business be sued for a debt in Texas?

Short answer

Yes. Vendors, lenders, landlords and merchant cash advance companies sue businesses for unpaid invoices, loans and leases. The business must answer by the deadline, and an LLC or corporation generally needs a lawyer to appear in county or district court.
