Russell Oxford is an experienced attorney concentrating in the areas of oil and gas, real property, and probate law.

He regularly advises clients involved in the acquisition, development, and exploration of oil and gas properties, with an emphasis on title examination.

Shortly after graduating from the University of Tulsa College of Law in 2009, Russell accepted an in-house title attorney position with Chesapeake Energy.  In the years since, he has served as in-house counsel or represented a number of public and privately-owned companies in a wide variety oil and gas matters.  Russell has authored hundreds of opinions including drilling and highly detailed division order title opinions; drafted various oil and gas agreements including purchase and sale agreements, oil and gas leases, assignments, and surface use agreements; worked on acquisition due diligence projects; reviewed and drafted real property and title curative documents; and provided legal representation in probate and estate administration matters and quiet title suits.
