Asked by user in Texas. Answered by Enjuris Editors.
I'm sorry this happened to you.
The fact that the attorney didn't verify that he was suing the correct person, particularly after being informed of his initial mistake, strikes me as very irresponsible. That being said, you probably can't recover any damages in this situation. The situation you described doesn't rise to the level of harassment or even a frivolous lawsuit.
You might consider filing a grievance against the attorney with the Texas Bar Association. The Texas Bar Association will investigate the complaint and discipline the attorney if appropriate.
