Our mission today is the same as it was fifty years ago: to create lasting relationships with the people and businesses that we serve. Our aim is to provide trustworthy legal counsel for land, mineral, and business owners. We walk through life with our clients, offering experienced legal advice for oil and gas, real estate, estate planning, and small business planning.
We help our clients grow their businesses, plan their estates, and preserve their land and minerals for the next generation. Chaille Walraven at Graft & Walraven was a tremendous help to our family. She was extremely knowledgeable in the area of oil & gas law. As a land owner and royalty owner we knew that we could not challenge the large oil companies alone.
