Representing Pennsylvania Landowners in Oil and Gas Disputes

Loughran, Mlakar & Bilik is a local Pennsylvania law firm in Greensburg that has built a reputation for practicing with strong ethics and devoted attention to the interests of clients. Our law firm has operated out of Greensburg since 1976.

We take pride in providing legal counsel to property owners in and around Westmoreland County who are involved in legal disputes regarding oil and gas leases. Our experienced lawyers work diligently to protect the rights of landowners with oil and gas contracts relating to natural energy extraction in Marcellus Shale or other deposits.

If you need to bring or defend a legal action against an energy company regarding violation of the terms of an oil and gas lease, we encourage you to contact us for a complimentary consultation. Our attorneys have negotiated oil and gas contracts with many of the most active energy companies, and with this basis of understanding, we take an aggressive approach toward protecting the rights of landowners in disputes over oil and gas contracts.

Whether you have been sued by an energy company for violating the terms of an oil and gas lease, or you want to bring a legal action against an energy company for violating terms of the contract, we can help. In cases where irrevocable land damage is at issue, we can act immediately to file injunctions or cease and desist orders to stop misuse of the land.

We have represented landowners against these and other natural energy companies:

  • Chesapeake Energy
  • Dominion Exploration and Production, Inc.
  • Atlas Energy, Inc.
  • Rex Energy Corp.
  • EOG Resources, Inc.
  • Dorso LP
  • Winfall Energy Inc.
  • TW Phillips Gas Supply Co./PC Exploration, Inc.
  • XTO Energy
  • Range Resources
  • Williams Production Appalachia

We have substantial experience reviewing and interpreting the archaic language of 100-year-old oil and gas contracts, as well as untangling the language of modern oil and gas contracts to determine the proper rights and responsibilities of the energy company toward the landowner and the land.
