In a major development on the access-to-justice front, the Supreme Court of Texas has given preliminary approval to rules that would allow the delivery of legal services to low-income individuals by licensed legal paraprofessionals and licensed court-access assistants. The court's order this week gives preliminary approval to the concept and will be finalized after a period of public comment. I have many more details plus the text of the order in my post at LawSites. You can find the link in the comments below.
