I live in Georgia and signed a General Warranty Deed to a company in Mannington District, Marion County, West Virginia. We sold the surface mineral rights (78.21 acres) on August 17, 2023. They transferred into their company name on August 28, 2023 and the contract states they must send a check within 30 days of the final notary date of the General Warranty Deed. NO CHECK and they will not answer my phone calls. Can anyone recommend a good litigation attorney? Or, can I get it transferred back in our name?

Call the district attorney in that County, that’s theft and a crime they can go to jail for.

Not sure what calendar you are looking at but 30 days from August 17 is September 17. I don’t think that day has come yet.

It’s October 12th? So, it’s well past the 30 business days?

Are you the surface owner of this land, or just OGM?
