Oil & Gas

As anyone who makes a living in the industry would readily admit, oil and gas is a highly specialized field. To provide the highest-quality legal work for industry participants, lawyers should know the business inside and out, not just as attorneys viewing matters solely through a legal prism, but as experienced participants in the business themselves. Needless to say, not every oil and gas lawyer has gotten his hands dirty in the field.

This is what separates Dickinson & Wheelock, P.C. Beyond the individualized attention that a firm of its size can provide to its clients, D&W has legal and practical experience in the oil and gas industry, and puts that specialized expertise to work for its clients every day.

The lawyers of Dickinson & Wheelock know how the business works, from the inside. During summers in college, Mr. Dickinson worked as a roughneck in Texas and Louisiana. After graduation, he went to work as a landman, and then ran his own oil land services company for five years, prior to attending law school.

Dickinson & Wheelock can handle any legal problem faced by its oil & gas clients, because its lawyers have both real-world expertise and extensive legal know-how. From negotiating oil and gas agreements and property acquisitions to conducting complex oil and gas litigation, Dickinson & Wheelock provides customer-first, cost-effective, quality representation to its oil and gas clients.

Jeff is very knowledgeable, takes pride in his work and really has your best interest at heart. He took the time to explain everything in language I could understand. I now have more confidence in knowing what I am getting into. I would definitely recommend Jeff.

Jeff took me through my franchise agreement line by line making sure i understood every detail i was signing. He focused on two main categories - am i protected if things go really well and am i protected is if things do not go well. I had no idea how exposed i was in the downside scenario until he walked me through a few example situations. I also did not understand the exposure i was taking on the upside scenario. When i read the agreement i read the part about territory completely wrong and because of his accurate assessment of territory i chose to not pursue this franchise. He created a simple to read addendum that i was able to send on to the franchise owners and gave me great tips on negotiating terms. When i find another franchise i intend to pursue i will definitely contact Jeff again to review any agreements before i sign.

Jeff Wheelock is a MUST for anyone considering purchasing a franchise whether new or resale. There is no better return on investment than having an experienced franchise attorney review an often one-sided agreement. Jeff will identify red flags and other clauses you will want to negotiate. Do NOT buy a franchise without first having Jeff review all of the documents. The small investment will pay huge dividends in the long run.
