Pipelines
Perhaps the worst thing about a Pipeline Project is that the pipeline company picks a route that is best for them. This means the Pipeline Project might bisect your property, go close very close to your home or other structures, cut through a swath of trees, or affect water features like stock tanks and streams. Pipelines will also disrupt the present and future use of your property. The route the pipeline company chooses will restrict your ability to build or maintain roads, run utilities, establish fencing or protect water features in the future.
Landowners rightly worry about exposed pipelines, leaks, contamination and the security of their property.
Pipeline cases can involve more than just a pipeline – pipeline cases can also mean mitigation systems, valve sites, compressor stations, electric distribution lines and road easements on your property.
Our services in pipeline cases include visiting with the property owner to discuss property-specific concerns (current operations, improvements, trees, and crops, for example); a review of the compensation offered by the pipeline company; discussions with the property owner about relevant market data; recommendations for the appropriate pipeline agreement; negotiations; and representation before the special commissioners or the court, all with an eye toward your goals and preferences.

And, our attorney’s extensive success in trying condemnation cases is one of the most important contributions we bring to the representation of property owners in condemnation cases.
