Assisting Energy Industry Clients in Navigating the Legal Landscape

Our firm was founded by natural resources lawyers with broad experience in the exploration and development of oil, natural gas, and other energy resources including coal, uranium and renewables. We bring that experience to bear by partnering with each client to seek out pragmatic solutions for the energy development challenges of today. Whether you confront a constantly changing regulatory regime or need to sort out an intricate web of legacy title problems, we have the skills to help you find the best way forward. 

We provide high quality mineral title examination to an array of natural resources development clients. We have extensive experience with the complexity of title in long developed fields like the Fremont field in Colorado, one of the oldest in the nation. We have examined lands where large subdivisions complicate mineral title in areas that were traditionally oil and gas areas, as in parts of Weld County, Colorado. In addition to the examination of title to private lands, our attorneys have broad experience with title to federal and state lands in Colorado, New Mexico, North Dakota, Texas and Wyoming. 

Our transactional work includes the creation of exploration agreements, structuring oil and gas asset purchases, as well as due diligence in preparation for purchases and sales. Whether you need assistance in conveying record title to a single federal lease or plan a major asset sale covering thousands of acres, we have been there and know the lay of the land. We can assist clients in evaluating their assets and understanding the transactional process from start to finish.

Our litigation services focus on natural resource issues and regulatory compliance. Our practitioners have experience in the energy development permitting process on federal, state, and private lands. We provide advice to clients on everything from quiet title actions to royalty payment appeals.
