Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas

I'm Loaning a friend 80,000 Dollars to purchase some land to develop. Would it be enough to protect my money by having a lawyer right up a line of credit contract with terms, or is there something else I should do. He would prefer that I just did a Line of credit Contract.
