I need a really good knowledgeable oil and gas attorney in the Oklahoma City area. Would appreciate some references. Thank you!!!
You can observe qualified professionals (often with localized expertise) who provide services to mineral owners right here on The Mineral Rights Forum. You will notice them in 3 different places on the site:
-
in display image ads and text links on site
-
in our Mineral Service Provider Directory in the main navigation bar above. These are arranged by professional discipline.
-
as a Business Member within many conversations throughout the site Look for the blue colored “B” on their picture and blue colored text).
These practitioners are often able to provide specific (and often localized) services that meet your needs.

It all depends on what you are looking for. Generally, royalty owners are looking for attorneys who can provide guidance with negotiating a lease, probate, unclaimed property or estate planning. There are tons of knowledgeable attorneys in in the Oklahoma City area. Also, the attorney does not necessarily need to be located in the locality where the minerals are located.

Thank you, Richard! I have several issues, including 13 acres of minerals in Blaine County that are missing. I had 13 acres, which was acknowledged by Sunoco. I purchased an additional 13 acres, which Sonoco acknowledged, but never changed the original decimal ownership interest. Now, the well is operated by another operator, but they still have me at the same decimal interest when it should have been doubled. Another issue is on a newer well in Blaine County where the operator is taking approximately 33% deductions for expenses, which I believe are expressly prohibited by the O & G lease I signed with another company. The company drilling the well refused to offer any language limiting deductions. Hope that makes sense. Joann Dudley
Perhaps try providing all the information regarding the additional 13 acres (include the first & second document that reaches 26 acres). Remind them of the interest that may be due.
Likewise do the same for the property leased with the no deductions clause. The new company should be stuck with the provisions. Send the lease highlighting the no deductions language.
