Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely not! We only work for landowners and individuals who own oil & gas assets in Alberta & Saskatchewan. We are incredibly passionate about our landowner representation and are committed to levelling the playing field for our members. We feel it would be disingenuous to represent landowners while simultaneously representing gas or pipeline companies.

Yes! We have negotiated many surface leases, pipeline agreements, and many other contracts with different companies. We have built positive working relationships with companies and their representatives. These healthy working relationships have often enabled us to expedite the negotiation process and maintain lines of communication. However, do not confuse a "working relationship" with anything more than a strictly "working" relationship. Our clients always come first. Building positive working relationships has proven to be a valuable tool in representing landowners to obtain the most robust agreements for their property.

Our founders as well as many of our staff, grew up and worked on the family farm. Some of us still do. Our childhoods and family backgrounds provide a unique understanding of the heartfelt value of each landowner's property. As the sons and daughters of farmers and ranchers, we genuinely appreciate the more profound value of a landowner's property and the heart that goes into what you do. A note from our CEO: “Our family farm has passed down from generation to generation and still serves as the backbone asset of our family. I grew up with a love and appreciation for the family farm and continue to carry this perspective into our representation of each client. Understanding the deeper value of a family's property motivates me to aggressively seek to secure the most advantageous agreements for our clients.” -Todd Plandowski
