Gulf Oil Spill Devastates

On April 20, 2010, the Deepwater Horizon, an offshore drilling rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico. Officials have said that this oil rig spill has been one of the worst since 1968. Not only has the spill claimed 11 lives and injured many more, individuals and businesses could be also affected by this disaster. Property damage, loss of profits and revenue, loss of natural resources, and other damages are just some of the types of damages people are experiencing all along the Gulf of Mexico.

Victims of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill include:

  • Commercial and private boat owners
  • Companies and individuals involved in the commercial fishing, oyster and shrimping industry
  • Companies and individuals involved in the seafood processing/packaging industry
  • Dock and Marina owners/operators
  • Waterfront property owners and restaurants

At least 26 federal lawsuits have already been filed as of May 1, 2010 by commercial fishermen, charter boat captains, resort management companies and individual property owners in Louisiana, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi.
