With these resources also come many issues between landowners and the energy companies seeking to extract the oil and gas. The leases these companies provide can make it very difficult to understand what your rights are as a landowner.

At Shaffer Law Parkersburg, we handle oil and gas lease negotiations or disputes of a lease that is already in place, including issues with royalties due to mineral and landowners.

OIL AND GAS OWNERSHIP DISPUTES

In West Virginia, mineral right ownership can be nothing short of a mess. With mineral rights and surface rights being severed sometimes over 100 years ago, tracking the path of these ownership interests can be an extremely complicated endeavor. Events such as inheritance, wills, and West Virginia intestacy laws play a vital role in determining how ownership rights have been passed down from generation to generation. If you find yourself at odds with another landowner over the specifics of your ownership rights, Shaffer Law Parkersburg can help interpret your ownership rights. It is our goal to analyze the rights of our clients and then protect and preserve them through whatever means are required.
