Jordan Jackson

Jordan Jackson handles oil and gas title examination and due diligence for operators, acquisitions, and mineral owners across the Bakken, Permian, Eagle Ford, and Oklahoma’s SCOOP and STACK. He reads every chain of title with a litigator’s eye, finding the gaps, unclear instruments, and missing assignments, then drafting the curative that clears the way to drill or close. He’s goal driven, deadline focused, and is as interested in finding the solution as he is in identifying the problem.

Drilling and Acquisition Title Opinions That Clear the Path

Most of Jordan’s work happens in the documents: reviewing the chain, determining title, and flagging every issue that stands between a client and its project. The usual suspects include gaps in title, instruments with unclear intent, and assignments that leave out references or the documents they were meant to convey. He drafts the curative requirements to correct them so operators can move forward on schedule, and buyers can close with confidence. Working across Texas, Oklahoma, and North Dakota, he accounts for the laws and rules governing each state.

Litigation-Tested Review That Anticipates Disputes

Early in his career, Jordan was the title attorney litigation teams pulled in to assist with title disputes, and he later spent time handling general litigation. That experience changed how he reads documents and writes requirements. He reviews each instrument with an eye toward how it could be challenged, then drafts curative requirements to keep the issue out of a courtroom.

Scalable Title Teams Built Around Firm Deadlines

Jordan treats the client’s deadline as the deadline and works to complete tasks on time, regardless of how short the time frame is. He takes title opinions from the first document through the final curative requirement, and on larger engagements he’s a core part of the attorney teams the firm builds for short notice, large projects to ensure their timely completion. When the timeline is tight, he puts in the extra hours, including late nights or over nights at the office included, to deliver on time.

Creative, Cooperative Solutions to Competing Interests

Title work is a puzzle, and the most interesting projects are the ones where the pieces don’t fit. Jordan not only works to find the right answer legally, but in instances where parties have a difficult time reaching an agreement, Jordan works with clients to find a legally sound solution that all parties will agree to. His study of primatology shapes how he handles the people side of that work, grounded in the idea that cooperation is what carried early humans forward. He keeps landmen, counsel, and the client focused on the solution rather than the cause, and that shared focus is usually what gets a stalled project moving again.
