<p>Speak with more than one attorney. Share your situation and ask questions. An initial consultation should be free of charge. Try to do it in person rather than over the phone so that you can better evaluate how they handle themselves.. If Encino doesn't have a valid lease and they drilled under your property you may be looking at damages, not just royalties. In that case you want to make sure the attorney has solid litigation experience and not just contact experience. Ask them for…</p>

<p>That sounds very shady Steve. Gulfport signed a lease with you, if there was a lease from 1973, then Gulfport would have signed a amendment with you to amend the old lease. Don't cash the check and get an attorney. </p>

<p>Any suggestions to a good Gas & Oil attorney? The one we used originally, wasn't knowledgeable about the O & G industry. He was with family of people in our church, but wasn't living in the area at the time. We did alright in the original agreement, considering, but not as well as some others. The next attorney that we used for part of our acres, said there was nothing we could do because the previous owners were under a lease and there was an active well on that part, so we lost…</p>
<p>Any suggestions to a good Gas & Oil attorney? The one we used originally, wasn't knowledgeable about the O & G industry. He was with family of people in our church, but wasn't living in the area at the time. We did alright in the original agreement, considering, but not as well as some others. The next attorney that we used for part of our acres, said there was nothing we could do because the previous owners were under a lease and there was an active well on that part, so we lost 8 of the 19.7 acres to that and are making minimum royalties off of that well. The other 11.7 acres are now under, once again, an old lease from 45+ years ago, though there has never been anything well on it, until now. Once again, we are being told, we are under the "old" lease. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Confusing to say the least. So any suggestions to an attorney would be helpful at this point.</p>

<p>A lawyer can submit a release of property from a lease to the Auditors office to legally state that the old lease is no longer in effect if that is what he finds when he does a title search. There will be a paper trail in the Auditors office of deeds and leases etc. If an old lease was never renewed or property not producing (or held by production) in all of those years then it may have reverted back to you and this may be a possibility.

<p>A lawyer can submit a release of property from a lease to the Auditors office to legally state that the old lease is no longer in effect if that is what he finds when he does a title search.

Some O&G companies never submit the paperwork to release your O&G rights when they should have. However most O&G companies these days do there due diligence and physically send Landman down to the Auditors office to look through all of the deeds and get a paper trail before they pay bonuses etc.</p>
