On April 20, the tragic Deepwater Horizon oil rig fire and explosion killed 11 workers on the oil platform operated by BP. Since then BP’s negligence also has led to environmental and economic devastation along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, ruining businesses and livelihoods.
Such innocent victims of the BP oil spill deserve and have a legal right to financial compensation, and veteran Gulf Coast law firm Jim S. Adler & Associates is determined to get it for them.
Seven weeks after BP’s negligence led to oil being vented into the Gulf of Mexico, millions of gallons of crude oil continue to spill into its waters, with BP failing again and again to stop it. As a result of this toxic oil spill clouding Gulf waters, thousands of individuals and businesses face financial devastation. Such innocent victims include oystermen, fishermen, shrimpers and owners of restaurants, motels, hotels and other tourism businesses venues up and down the coasts of Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and Florida.
BP’s poor safety record and cost-cutting in crucial places makes the British company liable for damages. Indeed, American victims have a legal right to pursue an oil spill lawsuit against BP to claim fitting economic compensation for oil spill losses and damages. Gulf Coast law firm Jim S. Adler & Associates can provide this help via an oil spill lawsuit or BP lawsuit.
“That oil is destroying a precious habitat and a way of life that make us strong and independent,” says Jim Adler, founder of Jim S. Adler & Associates. “It’s as toxic as British Petroleum’s safety record,” he said, noting the deaths of 15 BP workers at a Texas City, TX refinery in 2005.
The Obama administration is pushing BP to launch an independent victims’ compensation fund to help Americans whose livelihood has been damaged if not devastated BP’s oil spill. Such a fund, perhaps administered by a third party, could provide some economic recovery for oil spill victims of BP’s negligence.
In mid-June President Obama toured the coasts of Mississippi, Florida and Alabama to gather facts on the BP fiasco. Also financially harmed by the oil spill crisis are the states of Louisiana and Texas. These Gulf Coast states have had fishing and tourism industries worth billions of dollars, but BP’s catastrophic failures have changed that.
“BP is ruining lives and families in five states,” Adler says. “Your family does not have to suffer because some foreign company wanted to profit at your expense and ignored common sense safety rules. A lawsuit is your fundamental American right. I’ll take your outrage and get what you deserve.
