Abstract and Title Research
How many times have you received reports from abstracting companies where you have been forced wade through reams of paper, ambiguous language and incomplete run sheets to decipher your exact position in a target area?
Brighton Resources has a staff of analytical and detail-oriented Abstractors as well as a network of skillful and experienced Oil and Gas Attorneys with the state and county-specific knowledge to produce searches and title opinions in clear and concise reports that make sense.
Quality title work is the starting point and the foundation of every successful oil and gas project. Substantial and unique differences in laws, customs and regulations from state to state - and even county to county - demand local and specialized knowledge. We can mobilize individuals or teams of abstractors to do title work on whatever scale you require. Whether you need a single title examination from another state or county or a long-term project, we can meet your abstracting needs accurately and quickly. We specialize in the following services:
