New York Marcellus Shale Gas Lawyer
Jacobowitz & Gubits, LLP, has earned recognition as one of New York's premier law firms handling all legal transactions and litigation matters relating to natural gas drilling and Marcellus Shale property rights.
The Marcellus Shale has brought increased interest in exploring for natural gas in Southern New York. According to the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, in 2006, 55 billion cubic feet of natural gas was produced in New York State and the total amount of gas present could be as much as 500 trillion cubic feet. There are clearly opportunities for natural gas development here. The attorneys of Jacobowitz & Gubits, LLP, negotiate the terms of natural gas leases and pipeline easements for private property owners. In every natural gas lease, detailed steps must be taken to maximize financial benefits and environmental protections.

Focused on Your Best Interests in a Natural Gas Leasing Agreement
When negotiating the terms of a natural gas lease, the gas company usually has far more information than the landowner does.

We will make sure you receive fair market value for the use of your land.
