Inordinately large "owner deductions"

I got wells by inheritance and I didn’t have a lease when I got it. Still haven’t got a lease. But I did get an attorney to find out why our wells three of them went down the tubes on royalties from $2,000 to none or up to $300. My two brothers have the same properties and same percentage that we split three ways equally and we always got the same amount of royalties checks then Permian Petroleum took over and one of my brothers hadn’t been paid for the last three months and my other brother didn’t get checks for four months while they were figuring out the transfer of land. Now we got Commingle to deal with. I’m hoping to get good advice from lawyer and here. I may have gotten off subject but my royalties are wrong and need fixing. I’m wondering if they consider my wells as older wells because they are only two years producing and those two years had been consistent in payout?
