We Defend Your Royalty Rights and Plan The Disposition of Your Royalties


Out Law Firm Specializes in Representing Landowners and Holders of Oil and Gas Rights.

We help resolve royalty rights issues and preserve royalties through negotiating, planning and, when necessary, litigation.

Before You Sign:

Marcellus is a boon to our economy. With so much money involved, there are a number of issues that need to be addressed before you sign an oil and gas lease. For example:

  • Whether a bonus will be paid and if so, when will it be paid,
  • Whether the royalty is net or gross,
  • What deductions will be taken if your royalty is net,
  • Whether provision has been made to check whether your royalty is correct,
  • If a dispute arises over your payments, how and where the dispute will be addressed.

After You Signed:

If an oil and gas lease has been signed there may be disputes over oil and gas rights, royalties, bonuses, etc. For example:

  • Is the oil and gas company complying with the lease?
  • If not, what are your options?
  • Are you receiving the right royalty?,
  • If not, what can you do?
  • How do you check that your royalty check is correct?

The attorneys at Rothman Gordon have years of experience representing landowners and the holders of oil and gas rights. Our oil and gas attorneys have litigated numerous oil and gas matters for many landowners, royalty owners, and their families.
