BP Oil Spill, BP Oil Spill Cleanup Workers BLOG POST
Your BP Oil Spill Injuries May Warrant Compensation
It is well-known that since the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill, cleanup workers and residents of the Gulf Region have been experiencing a wide range of ongoing health issues, including severe skin irritations, neurological problems, respiratory difficulties, nervous system disorders, and chronic sinus pain, to name a few. BP is fighting hard to avoid payouts, despite its reported $11.6 billion in net profits in 2012.
BP’s failure to provide compensation for medical claims through its claims program — a program that existed for 18 months — has resulted in a federal court appointing the Garretson Resolution Group to assure that the funds negotiated in the recent medical settlement with BP actually get to those who need it.
What is the Garretson Resolution Group?
The Garretson Firm Resolution Group is a neutral company appointed by the court to serve as special master for the administration of health claim payouts by BP Oil. For more than a decade, Garretson has provided claims administration services and claim resolution services for mass torts cases, Medicare and Medicaid liens, private healthcare/ERISA liens, government healthcare programs and other personal injury claims — the company reportedly manages over 100,000 claims for healthcare reimbursement every year.
