Oil, Gas & Mineral Rights

Protecting the Interests of North Texas Property Owners in Oil, Gas & Mineral Negotiations

For any Texas land owner, oil, gas, and mineral rights may be the most valuable asset they have. It's important to negotiate the best oil and gas lease agreements possible to maximize the value of that asset. But that negotiation needs to take into account all possible uses of the land, both immediate uses and those in the future.

Oil lawyer Michael Whitten, the lead attorney at the Whitten Law Firm, has handled oil, gas and mineral rights negotiations and oil and gas litigation for dozens of North Texas residents. Before you sign any agreements, contact a lawyer known for zealous advocacy. Contact the Whitten Law Firm, P.C..

We'll help you understand Texas mineral rights law and the immediate and long-term consequences of mining and drilling on your land. If you intend to develop some of your property in the future, we can help you understand your options and plan for buffer sites and easements.

Proper legal counsel when buying and selling mineral rights can ensure you retain your legal rights while making the most of your valuable land asset.
