Subpoena Discovery Request Guide
Summary
In Texas, a subpoena is needed to obtain documents like a W-2 if not provided voluntarily. Responding to a motion for protection involves reviewing the motion, drafting a response, and attending a hearing. If the court denies the motion, a subpoena may not be necessary. Prepare for the hearing by gathering evidence, preparing arguments, and maintaining professionalism. Consider both subpoenas for production and interrogatories for comprehensive discovery.Full Conversation

Hi Brittney,
