Shreveport Oil and Gas Lawyers

As oil and gas prices have peaked, so has the interest and disputes in oil and gas rights in northwestern Louisiana. Mineral rights are very valuable, and a lawyer's advice and representation is essential whenever disputes arise between oil and gas production companies, lease holders, and property owners.

Our attorneys advise both mineral rights owners and oil and gas production companies in matters related to:

• Title issues
• Oil and gas leases
• Royalties
• Oil and gas operating agreements
• Contracts related to oil and gas production
• Surface access to oil and gas drilling sites
• Litigation relating to oil and gas law in Louisiana

Mineral rights for a piece of property may be owned by several different parties, each of whom has the right to drill for oil and gas. Our oil and gas lawyer will go through all the records and find out who owns the rights and who those rights have been leased to. Our attorneys are experienced in dealing with complex ownership of oil and gas drilling rights
