Jason Duke
Staff Attorney

Because of my past experience working with oil and gas companies, I am able to identify common issues, but also more nuanced issues that require great attention to detail and thinking outside of the box. The end goal is always to keep projects moving without sacrificing quality of work.

Jason Duke focuses his practice on energy law. As a landman for six years, he has a vast amount of experience in the oil and gas industry. Jason has worked with clients from leasehold acquisition to divestiture, including drafting of runsheets, title reports, curative instruments, and other documents as necessary. He also has experience working in-house with clients on various projects, including division of interest maintenance and expert witness work.
