The terms Condemnation and Eminent Domain are often used interchangeably, but the two words do not always mean the same thing. Simply stated, here is what they mean:
Eminent Domain – The power to take private property for a public purpose.
Condemnation – The court proceeding and legal process of using the purported power of Eminent Domain.
For over a decade, Trae Gray, though LandownerFirm, has been fighting for landowners under the premise that they are routinely taken advantage of and an under-protected group. LandownerFirm has represented thousands of landowners and is well known for doing so and achieving exemplary results.The attorneys at LandownerFirm provide protection in many ways, including but not limited to, maximizing "just compensation" for landowners and ensuring landowners don't give away more rights than they should when signing contracts and/or paperwork related to condemnation proceedings. Further, the attorneys at LandownerFirm have a unique understanding of landowner rights and the emotional challenges that arise during condemnation proceedings because we too are landowners.

Trae Gray is always my first call when anything comes up related to my land.
Trae Gray is the lawyer other lawyers call when the lawyer, the lawyer’s family, or the lawyer’s clients need to know how to deal with a landowner related issue. He is well recognized for his knowledge in this practice area and his ability to bring exemplary results to landowners.
Your representation in our transmission line case was excellent. I will always call you for any landowner related issue. I am ecstatic about your services.
Being from an agricultural background, he understands what is important to farmers and ranchers when negotiating damages.
Trae is a tough fighter that understands agriculture and is not your normal 9 to 5 lawyer.
Tenacious and sincerely devoted to protecting my rights as a landowner, Trae works hard remaining principled and honest. I would highly recommend him to any landowner.
Hardworking, relentless in his research, unwavering in the pursuit of my interests, while maintaining character and integrity.
A zealous advocate for our interests would be an understatement. We were engaged in a 3 year battle that settled one week before trial in federal court. Trae always made sure we were well informed and he was aggressive when necessary. He obtained an excellent result on our behalf.
Aggressively protecting the rights of landowners, focused on the details, thorough, and giving 110%.
Trae Gray is the true definition of a modern day American Cowboy. He is relentlessly hard working and the most honest, trust worthy, straight shooting gentleman you’ll ever meet. He has a unique gift of cutting through red tape with intelligent simplicity. He can breakdown a complex situation in five words or less. He is a man of character, action, and has dedicated his life to serving others. His impact as a country trial lawyer in Southern Oklahoma revolutionized the way oil companies treat individuals. His persistence to meet deadlines, expectations, targets, and fight for what he believes in is evidenced by his reputation and those that deal with him. I would absolutely 100% recommend Trae as a Natural Resources Trial Lawyer.
Trae Gray is one of the most trustworthy, ethical, and loyal people I have ever met. While he consistently ranked top 5% - 10% at Dell, he was always truthful, honest, and compassionate to his customers. Should I ever choose to run my own company in the future, I hope to have Trae as my #1 officer.
Ryan and Trae provided excellent counsel in our subsurface trespass case in the United States District Court in the Eastern District of Oklahoma. David Ridley, President, David Ridley Oil, LLC

Yes! And for most Landowners the taking of their land is unwanted and seems to be an unjust process. The condemning company has certain legal rights to utilize and sometimes take the property. Companies know exactly what their rights are.
Usually, the law provides you protection, but if one is not keenly aware of those protections, it can be extremely hard to bargain and get what you deserve. Essentially, you need a Landowner attorney to help you make informed decisions about your situation.
