Oil and Gas

Kinney Law Office provides specialized expertise in oil and gas transactions around the world. Oil and gas operations are some of the most capital intensive projects in the world. In this field, understanding the law alone is not enough. Our clients need lawyers that understand the broad range of issues that are unique to exploration, development and extraction of petroleum. Kinney Law Office has years of experience in supporting clients with oil and gas projects. From production sharing contracts to gas transportation agreements to leases and mineral transfers, our unique knowledge of the field and application of technology solutions such as economic modeling and document automation can make the difference in successfully negotiating and structuring these projects.

The issues surrounding oil and gas development can be some of the most complex and interesting transactions in the business world. Few other industries involve the science, technology and financial impact of a petroleum project. Providing effective legal advice on petroleum projects requires detailed understanding of the science and economics of the petroleum development cycle in addition to the legal and regulatory atmosphere that affects these projects. Kinney Law Office has the experience and background to handle many types of petroleum transactions, both in the United States and around the world.

Getting Your Estate Plan Done is Easier than You Think

Our estate planning process begins with a free Estate Strategy Session Consultation. The consultation will answer your questions and qualify you for our complementary Estate Strategy Session. Before the Session, you will complete an online, guided interview that will help you collect the information we need. We make the process fast, easy and secure.

During the Session, your attorney will guide you through what would happen to the people you love and your wealth should anything happen to you. Then we will create a plan together to make sure everything goes the way you want. You can control your future and do things today that will help your family during one of their most emotional and difficult moments. They will always know how much you cared about them and will be relieved of many of the difficult choices they would have otherwise been forced to make.
