Oil & Gas Attorney in Billings, MT

The industry involves far more than simply extracting minerals from the ground. From the early stages of exploration to capping a well and environmental remediation, the potential for legal disputes is huge. Landowner and property rights, access issues, contracts, employees, safety and OSHA problems, injuries, environmental fights, fracking and disputes with contractors, vendors, or suppliers are just some of the challenges that might arise.

Whatever your role in the industry, if you encounter a problem, Ritchie Manning Kautz can help you navigate it.
