Legal Opinions

The Legal Opinions Committee of the ABA’s Business Law Section and the Working Group on Legal Opinions Foundation, through a Joint Committee of bar group representatives and other opinion practitioners, have sponsored a project to prepare a Statement of Opinion Practices that establishes a national basis for the preparation and understanding of third-party legal opinion letters. Representatives of the Texas Business Law Section’s Legal Opinions Committee have participated in this project. The Statement has been approved by numerous bar groups, including the Texas Business Law Section. In addition to the Statement, the Joint Committee has also published an Explanatory Note and the Core Opinion Principles, both of which have been posted on this website.
