Since the horrific Deepwater Horizon oil platform catastrophe killed 11 workers on the oil rig of BP, or British Petroleum, BP’s failures and negligence have created another catastrophe in Gulf Coast states. The oil spill has produced economic and ecological disasters all across the Gulf of Mexico coast, destroying American businesses and the livelihood of thousands of innocent people.

These American victims of a British corporation’s history-making incompetence have a legal right to seek fair and just financial compensation. Now they can press for such economic recovery by standing shoulder to shoulder with experienced Gulf Coast law firm Jim S. Adler & Associates, an injury firm that’s helped thousands of Americans for over 35 years.

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 already had established a horrible record for safety standards, when common sense dictated more care and caution. Such negligence clearly makes British Petroleum responsible for billions of dollars in damages that it’s caused. BP’s American victims now have a legal right to seek recovery via an oil spill lawsuit. They can do so with help from the Gulf Coast law firm of Jim S. Adler & Associates, which can press a BP oil spill lawsuit in their behalf.

“That oil is destroying a way of life and a precious habitat that make us independent and strong,” says Jim Adler, founder of Jim S. Adler & Associates. “The BP oil spill is as toxic as British Petroleum’s safety record,” he said, recalling the deaths of 15 workers at a BP refinery in 2005 in Texas City, TX.

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.

“A lawsuit is your fundamental American right,” say Adler. “BP is ruining lives and families in five states. But your family does not have to suffer because some foreign company ignored common sense safety rules and wanted to profit at your expense. I’ll take your outrage and get you what you deserve.”
