[TX] How do I defend myself legally for abandoning a dog?

I am in Texas and got charged with Misdemeanor A for abandoning a dog. The dog was a stray that I picked up and took to a shelter to get checked and see if they could take him. It started growling at my kid in the back, and I let it go from my car. What can I do to defend my case? This happened in Waller County.

[TX] What’s the difference between a quitclaim and warranty deed?

I am a co-owner of the home that is being deeded over to me. We are getting it notarized in Washington State, but the paperwork shows Texas. How do I change that? Also, do I need a Special Warranty Deed or just a Quitclaim Deed form? The house has a clear title, and we own it outright—no loans on it, etc.

[TX] How will a bank release funds for a small estate?

Father passed in New Mexico. Real estate property and life insurance passed to wife. Bank account in Texas needs to be settled. Bank won’t release without probate, even with affidavit of successor interest, letters of testamentary, and heirs wanting to split evenly. How can this be released without a will?

[TX] How do I make a contract for renting my swimming pool to a friend?

Hello, a friend of mine wants to rent out my pool and invite some of their friends. I’m okay with that; however, I want her to sign a contract stating she does not hold me or my property liable should an accident or death occur during the time they are on my property. Is there such a form? Thank you.

[TX] Can I transfer a bank account using a Small Estate Affidavit?

Husband’s parents both died within 32 days of each other. They have no real estate or property other than small personal items, leaving only the contents of their checking account, totaling less than $7,100 (or less, depending on whether Social Security retracts some funds). I have drafted separate Small Estate Affidavits for each.

[TX] How do I change my last name on my birth certificate?

I am an 18-year-old female who wants to change my last name. My birth certificate in El Paso County, Texas, originally listed another man as my father. My real father gained custody of me when I was 4, and a DNA paternity test was taken, stating positive. I have had a birth certificate with the original name for the past 18 years, but now I want to get a driver’s license and need to change the last name on my birth certificate.

[TX] If a borrower defaults, do I get to keep the money?

How do I add a default clause in this? I want to put in that if he does not pay and must default, I want to make sure what he has paid in stays with me. He is my son, but still, life could change!!!
