Bounty Hunters Wanted
Oil Spill Claimants Bounty - While the Feds are going after BP for penalties associated with the massive oil spill, BP continues to help the Gulf recover by paying bounty on fraudulent oil spill claimants:  

Today they said "Tips received through the Hotline will be reviewed and referred for further evaluation, if warranted, to fraud investigators at the CSSP, the National Center for Disaster Fraud, or other law enforcement agencies. Tips that lead directly to an indictment, a recovery of money paid, or the denial of a claim because of fraud or corruption may entitle the reporter to a reward."

The FloridaOilSpill.com Oil Spill tipline has been in operation since days after the oil well destroyed the Gulf Coast. Thanks BP for gathering information that helps the gulf recovery.

Just so you know.

Truth About the BP Settlement - Part 2

BP Oil Spill Claims, BP Settlement, Florida Oil Spill Claims, Judge Carl Barbier,
Truth About the
BP Settlement 
BP is dissatisfied with the Oil Spill Claims Judge. On behalf of one of the lead lawyers in the BP Oil Spill Settlement, we want you to know and to correct some of the misinformation surrounding BP’s current media campaign. Again, On behalf of the businesses and families of the Gulf Coast, the undisputed factual record establishes that:

"Judge Barbier was selected by a panel of respected trial and appellate court judges from across the country to preside over the BP Oil Spill Litigation, one of the largest, if not the largest, consolidated cases in history. He has been universally praised by BP and others for his ingenuity, commitment and dedication to the efficient and effective management of this vast and complex litigation. Judge Barbier has served on the Federal Bench for well over a decade, and his integrity and judicial excellence have never been called into question."

Just so everyone knows.

One media source noted, "In the months after the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded 300 miles off Florida's coast in April 2010, hotel and restaurant owners, fishermen and shopkeepers kept a grim vigil, waiting to see whether the millions of gallons of spilled oil would taint the state's beaches and harm its seafood." See Review.net  "Feeding Frenzy" March 8, 2013.

The Feeding Frenzy report also noted,, "In December, U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier in New Orleans gave final approval to a $7.8 billion partial class-action settlement providing for economic and property damages from the spill, including those in Florida. BP separately agreed to pay $4.5 billion in penalties and pleaded guilty to felony misconduct in the disaster, which cost 11 lives. Barbier now is presiding over a trial to determine whether BP was grossly negligent, with another $17 billion in potential penalties at stake."

The writer recognized, "With the new guidelines, thousands of firms may qualify if they fall within designated coastal zones and show a 2010 drop in revenue after the disaster, with a rebound in 2011. But the window to collect damages from the largest oil spill in U.S. history is closing — economic and property damage claims must be filed by April 2014. "

The article concluded, "As of Feb. 10, in the third phase of payouts, the Deepwater Horizon Claims Center had issued 26,608 eligibility notices with payment offers totaling more than $2 billion throughout the gulf states. The center had also completed more than $1.43 billion in payments on 19,530 claims. "

Florida Oil Spill Class Action Attorney | Lawyer Video on Claims Process

Florida Oil Spill claims on the $20 Billion escrow fund are going to be carefully screened to avert fraudulent claims. It sounds like the claims will be reviewed for legitimacy. Lawyers do not need to be involved if the fund is run correctly. According to one Florida attorney, the only reason those claims by small businesses or individuals may need counsel, would be if a court finds the program is not funding those in need in a timely manner.
