Hypothetical but I think we can all get the gist of this.

I can see it now. Just like the phone calls that people get from attorneys after an automoble accident accident, it''ll probably go something like this:

New homeowner's phone rings with an attorney on the line:

Attorney:
"Did you have your home inspected prior to purchase?"

Homebuyer:
" Of course."

Attorney:

"Did you realize that home inspectors in Texas are required to carry E&O insurance and that many home inspectors miss crucial repair items during the inspection?

Homebuyer:
"Really?"

Attorney:
"Yes they do and you may be entitled to a settlement. We are offering at no charge to have your home re-inspected by our own inspector to determine if your inspector missed anything. If we find any missed repair issues there will be no charge to you and we can start the leagal proceedings on your behalf for a cut of the settlement."

Homebuyer:
"Wow, thanks Mr. Attorney, you are really looking out for the consumer!"

Of course since the real estate transaction is already over, the attorneys inspector would not be required to carry E&O.
