Oil and Gas Title Examination

"I was very pleased to learn that this standard reference has been updated and republished. It belongs on the desk (not merely on the bookshelf) of every landman and title lawyer." --Owen L. Anderson, Eugene Kuntz Chair of Law in Oil, Gas and Natural Resources, University of Oklahoma College of Law. • "The best hands-on, step-by-step manual I have discovered for writing oil and gas title opinions-and to avoid many of the title examination stumbling blocks in doing so." --Jon Love, JD CPL, Love Land Services, Oklahoma City. • Oil and gas title examination is one of the most challenging and specialized areas of real property law. Whether you're making your first foray into the field or have an established practice, you want to know that you're doing it right. You want the tips and tricks that improve your technique, and the forms that ease the task of title opinion drafting. Whether it's a standup title examination in the county records or a grind through a stack of abstracts, you want to follow the best practices. • For more than thirty years, George J. Morgenthaler's Oil and Gas Title Examination has been the classic reference for attorneys and landmen. Long out of print, now it has returned in hardback and e-book editions. Oriented toward sound procedure and technique, emphasizing the common problems that arise in every title examination-and the title curative that they require-it is a versatile desk reference for the conscientious title examiner.
