I am currently attemping to complete a transfer of ownership with TGNR East Texas LLC for owner mineral interest located in Rusk County. It has taken the operator more than a year to finally respond. Back in February, I finally got a response from their royalty ownership division and sent in all required documents. At the end of March, I was told that we would receive a division order my the end of April. Despite phone calls, leaving messages, voicemails, and attempting to reach one of the executives, no one has attempted to call me back and the promise of receiving a new division order was never fulfilled. I would like to know what my action of recourse would be or do I have to go the route of getting an attorney.
In my experience with title transfers and other issue with most oil companies, you need to correspond by email rather than by phone. It lets you provide more detailed information for response, rather than depending on someone trying to decipher a phone message and make written notes. If you are talking with owner relations, they do not know how quickly the recorded deed, W-9 and other documents will be reviewed and processed by the division order analyst and so are making a guess as to timing.
