I saw your post headline and I was going to chime in with a hearty "congratulations, you are a winner in life's lottery!". Then I read your post and saw you actually went and told Chesapeake what happened!! Amazing you would have done that. If you have a gun, why not just shoot yourself in the head? It would have been easier.
But I'll try to stay positive:
You might still be OK, but I can't congratulate you just yet. If ever a landowner needed a good O&G lawyer, it is you. I'm not a lawyer and I don't shill for lawyers. He might not be the absolute best choice. But you need a lawyer so desperately I'll make the first lawyer suggestion I've ever made on this forum: talk to Jim Pruyne in Towanda. Pruyne is old and smart. He's been practicing law in Towanda for YEARS!!
If you don't like that suggestion, and given your desperate situation, ANY lawyer is going to leave you better off than you are now (probably . . any honest lawyer, anyway).
Finally let me say
What you did early in 2006 was not foolish at the time. No reasonable person would fault you for what you did back then. What you have been doing since March 23, though, has been idiotic, er, I mean unwise. It has not been in your best interest, let's put it that way. Depending on how many acres you own, there could be millions of dollars on the line.
Can you afford to screw around with money like that hanging in the balance? For God's sake talk to a lawyer Monday. And I hope you get your land back!
I have said in the past on this web site....I live in Northern Virginia and had Melissa Robb attoney at Law with the Smith Butz law firm in Canonsburg PA represent us with Atlas/Chevron negotiating my lease. She and the firm specialize in oil and gas. She did an excellent job, reasonable, and efficient. Her phone number is 724-745-5121. I hope this helps.
Good Luck

AboutWhat makes this site so great? Well, I think it's the fact that, quite frankly, we all have a lot at stake in this thing they call shale. But beyond that, this site is made up of individuals who have worked hard for that little yard we call home. Or, that farm on which blood, sweat and tears have fallen. [ Read More ] |
