Texas attorney familiar with religious-liberty and public-accommodations law
Worldwide
I need a lawyer that knows all Texas laws and can answer these questions: I can pay $10 a hour Questions for Attorney Regarding Religious Beliefs & Event Hall Policies I own a for-profit event hall in Houston. What federal, Texas, and local laws apply to my ability to accept or decline events based on my religious beliefs? Is there a legal difference between declining a same-sex wedding and declining a same-sex couple who wants to rent the hall for a private dinner, anniversary, birthday party, or proposal? Does Houston or Harris County have any ordinances that affect my venue's ability to decline certain events? Am I legally allowed to limit my venue to specific types of events that align with my religious beliefs? Can I create a written venue policy that states the types of events my facility hosts? If so, what should that policy say? Is there a legal difference between renting a venue space and providing customized wedding services? What language should be included in my rental agreement to protect my business and clearly communicate my policies? If I decline an event request, what is the safest way to communicate that decision to minimize legal risk? Would operating part of the business as a ministry or faith-based organization change my legal protections? What insurance coverage should I have in place to protect the business from discrimination claims or lawsuits? What are the potential legal risks, costs, and liabilities if a complaint is filed against my business? Can you review my website, marketing materials, contracts, and booking procedures to ensure they comply with Texas and local laws while reflecting my religious beliefs?
