The statute's own words
Independent professional advice" means advice of an attorney, certified public accountant, actuary, or other licensed professional adviser.
That sentence is the whole of what Texas CPRC ch.141 says on this point in the section cited. It is reproduced here for reporting and comment; it is not legal advice, and nothing on this page is our reading of it.

Side by side, each in its own statute's words. Where two jurisdictions differ, the difference is between the two quotations; it is not our characterisation of either.
