I think it's less complicated than the internet may lead you to believe.
That what was once a handshake agreement between two adjacent Texas landowners, must now be codified by law as to how it must be done "legally", is arguably "complication", and by government edict.
More government interference in your business, leading to the necessity of the advice to "get a lawyer", and another restriction on what you can to with your property.
Sorry, but it's a damned shame to see the NE and West Coast crowded rat syndrome manifest itself in rural areas in this once great State.
