You may not lose your case entirely, but missing your deadline puts you behind the 8 ball. The problem with missing your deadline has to do with showing the Court that you were otherwise acting in good faith. If you miss the deadline by a day or two, the Court might just look the other way, but be careful. If you are willfully ignoring your Tenant's request for a deposit refund, and you haven't responded in a reasonable manner, the court has the authority to hit you with some big time fees. Even if you are otherwise 100% justified in keeping the deposit, your failure to follow the law might mean you lose this case.

"Don't just look for better Tenants. Continually look for ways to be a better Landlord, and your business will thrive."
--Ernie Garcia

The Law Office of Ernie Garcia represents Landlords in various trial cases in Texas Justice Courts, County Courts, District Courts, and even U.S. Federal District Courts in the Southern District of Texas. While our office is located in Houston, Texas and many of our cases are in Harris County, we have represented clients in Courts all throughout the State of Texas.

Our Landlord clients look to the Law Office of Ernie Garcia to send demand letters to tenants who have breached their residential or commercial leases. We prepare petitions for Eviction and represent Landlords, Investment Companies, and Property Managers involved in Evictions at the Justice Court and in Eviction Appeals.

The goal in every Eviction is full and final resolution, which sometimes includes Judgment, Writ of Possession, Abstract of Judgment, Writ of Execution, and even settlement. We also defend Landlords whose Tenants sue them in these same courts with claims for repairs, security deposits, or a variety of other Lease disputes.

Additionally, Ernie Garcia assists Landlords with drafting Leases that comport with the Texas Property Code and puts the Landlord in a firm position to derive the best benefit from the Landlord/Tenant relationship. He routinely delivers Notice to Vacate, Notice of Lease Termination, or Notice of Non-renewal for Landlords seeking to end a Lease relationship with a bad tenant. Ernie Garcia shows clients how the Eviction process can improve Tenant cooperation and reduces the potentially enormous losses that come from continued instances of partial and late payments.

Ernie Garcia has over 10 years of litigation experience in jury trials and bench trials. He has also represented clients on appeal to the First and Fourteenth Texas Courts of Appeal.
Through the years our philosophy has never changed. We are here for the benefit of our clients, and we seek to improve situations and to create innovative solutions to conflicts that affect the property, accounts, and business assets of the people we represent.
