Myself and two of our neighbors had been approached by Chesapeake wanting to modify our lease. Doug Clark’s expertise was invaluable to us, as we were unsure about the changes requested and needed facts rather than opinions. Doug was able to successfully negotiate the lease modifications to both our and Chesapeake’s satisfaction, plus he negotiated a bonus payment for the lease modification which was not originally offered. Thank you, Doug!
