Whether you own a piece of land, have an oil-related dispute or require an estate plan, Demakis Law can handle a multitude of business and personal legal concerns.
Opening the mailbox doesn't yield that many surprises, but a request for an easement for a transmission line or a letter related to a wind or oil and gas lease can pose questions. You may have existing leases and wonder if you are still being paid fairly. Or it could come up in estate planning, for example, how do you transfer mineral rights to loved ones?
Starting a new business or finding a solution when a business law issue arises can be challenging. At Demakis Law, our experienced attorney offers comprehensive legal services to clients in all industries throughout North Dakota. Seeking legal advice from an established attorney with local roots is one way to find a solution to often complex matters.
What will happen to the family business? How will mineral royalties be divided? Estate planning has become more important with the surge in the local North Dakota economy. A well thought out and legally documented estate plan is an important way to ensure you protect loved ones and it can also avoid lengthy and costly probate.

I just received a call back and have never been treated so rudely by a professional in my life. I needed an attorney to fax and request a record for me and that’s it. He was extremely rude and said he had too much going on and too much on his plate to deal with THIS! I only pray he doesn’t know any people involved and won’t be telling them what I had requested. That’s the only reason I can think of as to why he was so rude to me and didn’t have the time to fax a request for me, Or maybe he was involved in this years ago with my family? I didn’t ask him to do it for free and how long

My husband and I went to Charles for help with our estate planning and he was extremely helpful and patient walking us through step by step to create our Wills and General Power of Attorney. He helped us to make the best decisions for our family and we appreciated his knowledge and professionalism. Highly recommended!
