The BP Claims Process: A Detailed Guide
This whitepaper was commissioned by The United States Leadership Forum just a few short months after the BP oil spill. Following a series of costly mistakes and neglect, millions of gallons of toxic oil flowed into the Gulf Coast region. It remains the largest environmental disaster our country has ever seen. After a lengthy court battle, Gulf Coast residents finally gained access to the funds BP originally set aside for local citizens whose financial livelihood was damaged or threatened as a result of the massive spill. This whitepaper provides a detailed look at the BP claims process and how Gulf Coast citizens can obtain funds.
