BP Oil Spill Claims In A New Court. Businesses, property owners and others located in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi or Florida (click here for a list of eligible Florida counties) who have not settled their BP oil spill claims may be eligible to participate in a new Court Supervised Settlement Program. Under the program, BP has agreed to set aside at least $20 billion to resolve economic loss and medical damage claims stemming from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. If you have not resolved you BP oil spill claims, this new program could provide you with a chance to finally obtain compensation for your financial losses and/or personal injuries.

Even if you’ve already applied for compensation through the Gulf Coast Claims Facility and were denied, you may still be able to obtain compensation through this new Court Supervised Settlement Program.

Parker Waichman LLP has already helped thousands of BP oil spill victims recover tens of millions of dollars for their financial losses and medical damages. Our BP oil spill attorneys are qualified to represent any business or individual wishing to a file a claim through the Court Supervised Settlement Program. For a free consultation to help determine your eligibility for the new BP Oil Spill Court Supervised Settlement Program, please fill out our online form, or call 1 800-968-7529.

After suffering pain from a serious injury that occurred during a slip and fall, Parker Waichman gave me Julie Trinidad, which was an effective decision. Ms. Trinidad made my life easier during the stressful time. She provided all answers on a timely manner and did an efficient job with my injury case. Sometimes she provided answers for questions before I could even think of them. She always kept me up to date with all aspects of the case and made sure to see if was in decent condition. I never had to worry because I was in perfect hands and with someone who actually cares about the client (which was me). If anyone I know needs legal advice I would recommend Parker Waichman base off of the great experience and assistance I received from Julie Trinidad. Ms. Trinidad was the best. Merlyn M
