At Jeter Law Firm, our practice is as diversified as the rural regions that we serve. From large commercial operations to family farms; from complex estate planning to simple wills; and from big oil to independent operators, we offer representation with exceptional, client-centered service. Successful oil and gas operators know the myriad of legal pitfalls that loom with every project. Jeter Law Firm’s extensive experience in oil and gas allows us to offer a spectrum of services catered to each client’s specific needs, including title examination, drilling opinions, document drafting, joint  operating agreements, lease assignments, regulatory opinions and assistance, and the capability to litigate if and when necessary.
