The environmental disaster, which has surpassed the 1989 Exxon Valdez tragedy to become the worst such accident in United States history, has resulted in millions of gallons of crude oil being spewed directly into the delicate ocean ecosystem off the coast and along the beaches of Louisiana, Mississippi, and other Gulf Coast states.

The toxic oil from the spill is an extremely hazardous and toxic substance, threatening not only the wildlife, beaches, and the environment of the Gulf Coast, but also individual landowners, commercial fishermen, restaurant and hotel operators, and other shipping and tourism businesses in the region. Injured parties may have legal rights against the owners and operators of the oil rig, BP and Transocean, for financial damages intended to compensate them for their lost wages, personal injuries, and other expenses resulting from the accident.

The Walker & Crawford Law Firm has handled several claims against BP in the past and has experience dealing with large corporations.

  • Commercial Fishermen
  • Shrimpers
  • Oyster farmers
