Protect Your Mineral Rights
Opening the mailbox doesn’t yield that many surprises, but a request for an easement for a transmission line or a letter related to a wind or oil and gas lease can pose questions. You may have existing leases and wonder if you are still being paid fairly. Or it could come up in estate planning, for example, how do you transfer mineral rights to loved ones?
At DeMakis Law, we have worked with families and individuals from the initial negotiation of leases through the lifecycle of production. We know that property issues can arise at any time and we can explain how North Dakota law applies in your situation.
