Offer to purchase Kansas mineral rights producing gas wells

Our family is in the process of deciding to purchase our parents mineral rights so they can spend down their assets and apply for Medicaid should they require a nursing home soon. Sent out six or seven letters to businesses who in the past have offered to purchase the rights. Only one responded, an individual with ties to farm land in the area, and a “friend” of the attorney that may close the deal. The offered price is 25,000. We may be willing to pay 20,000 or whatever price is fair market value or defensible in a court of law. The wells location are….

The South Half (S½) of Section Three (3), the North Half (N½) of Section Ten (10), the South Half (S½) of Section Eleven (11), the North Half (N½) of Section Twelve (12), all of Section Fourteen (14), and the East Half (½) of Section Fifteen (15), all in Township Thirty-three (33) South, Range Thirty-nine (39) West of the Sixth P.M., Stevens County, Kansas

Thanks so much for any input. I’m trying hard to navigate this confusing process and the forum has taught me quite a bit.
