Mineral rights and royalty interests show up in estates more often than most attorneys expect, and they come with rules that don't always follow general property or trust law. This one-hour primer gives estate planning and probate attorneys a working knowledge of how mineral assets are classified, transferred, and administered, with practical attention to the fractional and jointly owned interests that create the most real-world friction. No oil and gas background required. Register today!

  • Recognize key mineral interest types and how estate and trust law applies.
  • Avoid common errors when transferring mineral rights through probate or trust.
  • Address the planning challenges of fractionalized and jointly owned interests.
  • Know when to flag mineral asset issues at intake and when to call an expert.
