BP Oil Spill Claim Attorneys
Hurricanes are a natural disaster you may have to live with, but when your property is damaged or your business shut down by a man-made disaster, you may have legal recourse. If your property has been damaged or your business has lost profits because of the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill, call Lucado Law Firm now at (888) 278-0026. Also join us on our companion blog site, www.gulfofmexicooilspillattorney.net. Do I need an attorney for my BP oil spill claim? BP has initiated a claims process for those affected by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Our firm is already assisting several people through the BP claims process. Whether you need an attorney depends on whether you need legal advice, expertise, or judgment. You need an attorney if you are unable to determine the extent of your damages or if you do not know what types of damages are recoverable against BP. You may also need an attorney to assist you in understanding what claims are legally recoverable if BP denies any portion of your claim. Other potential responsible parties include Transocean, Halliburton Energy Services, and Cameron International. So far, these parties have not indicated a willingness to resolve claims despite their obvious role in contributing to the oil spill crisis. To the contrary, Transocean has filed an action under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, otherwise known as “OPA,” in federal court in Houston to limit its responsibility to $27,000,000. Read more.... What kind of attorney do I need? You need an attorney with experience handling complex mass tort claims in federal multi-district litigation. Your attorney should also understand federal maritime law because the claims will arise under federal maritime law. It is important that your attorney understand how the OPA may limit your claims against those responsible for the oil spill. The fact of the matter is, the vast majority of attorneys advertising for the BP oil spill do not have experience in litigating claims in multi-district litigation, nor do they have an understanding of the available claims under federal maritime law, and do not understand OPA. At Lucado Law Firm, we have the experience, skill and expertise necessary to handle your BP oil spill claim. Our attorneys have successfully pursued hundreds of cases in multi-district litigation. We have experience with federal maritime law. We understand how the OPA may affect your claim. We have already begun combating the efforts of Transocean and other responsible parties who seek to limit their liability. Read more.... We are already working for those affected by the BP oil spill. Our firm has filed several lawsuits against BP, Transocean, Halliburton and Cameron International in Alabama and Florida. BP first revealed its strategy to attempt to move all cases involved in the oil spill to a federal court in Houston, Texas, in one of our cases, in early May. After learning of BP's motion to transfer the cases to Houston, a reporter from The Wall Street Journal interviewed Shane Lucado of our firm. Mr. Lucado was quoted in two articles published by The Wall Street Journal, in which he indicated our firm would oppose BP’s efforts to transfer the cases to Houston. Mr. Lucado also went on record, telling reporters our firm will oppose Transocean’s attempts to limit its liability. We are already on the job and leading the charge for those affected by the oil spill. Read more... COMMITTED TO RESULTSLet us get results for you.
