So I was hit and run by a car last year while I was over there working. There is apparently a victims of crime compensation they told me about in US hospital and need to have someone look into my client's public library.
Have broken spine, both legs, liver, etc. Is there anyone in Sydney with knowledge of Texas law or at least has contacts over there?

Hi,
While there might be someone in Sydney with knowledge of the Texas court circuit, you probably need in-country representation. The US consulate in Sydney might be the best place to go to find representation or at least be pointed in the right direction.
