Division Orders

[Buddy_Cotten]

I inherited some producing minerals.....what next?

Nothing in this life is forever. Let's take a scenario. Mom and Dad owned some minerals and they have been receiving royalty checks for years. Mom and Dad went on to their reward and the checks still come to their old address in their name. How do you get them in your name? First, title must reside somewhere. When a death occurs, the land(s) belong to the Estate of the deceased. In other jurisdictions, it may be called something else (like Succession in Louisiana), but the theory is the same…

Best,
