Have you noticed unexpected deductions from your royalty payments or does the amount you are receiving seems lower than it should be? It is important to understand what your deductions mean and more importantly, whether they are lawful. Many operators charge 30% or more, every month, in costs that are not permitted under your lease.,Operators may fail to pay you on the total volume of your minerals produced, underpay your royalties based on improper pricing, or use accounting methods that benefit the company far more than you–the royalty owner. Before accepting these deductions as legitimate, our attorneys can review your royalty statements, and help determine whether you are being paid the full value you are owed.

Because improper royalty deductions can significantly reduce your income over time, we encourage royalty owners to seek guidance as soon as they suspect a problem. Reach out today to ensure your interests, and your royalty payments, are fully protected. Simply submit your oil and gas lease and a copy of a recent royalty statement below, and our attorneys will review your statement at no charge for any improper royalty deductions.
