I am starting to see more and more VOO (vessel Of Opportunity) claims. This would be for the breach of contract where BP promised 2-3 years of work and people got a few month. Also I am seeing people that still have not gotten paid for their VOO work or damage related to their boats because of the work that has not been paid. People that have worked in the VOO program is also getting sick and I am hearing from a lot of those people. If you where in the VOO program please fill out a form.
People that I would like to get in contact with are the following groups.
1. VOO program, even if you have been paid and don’t think you have a claim please fill out a free case evaluation and talk to an attorney
2. VOO program if you are feeling sick or have been more sick since you did the VOO work
3. VOO program if you have a contract dispute (there are lots of you guys) that I have already talked to fill out a form
4. Beach Clean up if you have a contract dispute again talked to plenty of you guys already. You moved here because they promised 2-3 years of work and they gave you a few month if you where lucky. Please fill out a free case review
5. Beach Clean up if you are getting sick.
6. Anybody that has been involved in BP beach clean up please fill out a contact form on the right.
If you are part of the group above or know somebody that are part of the group above please have them fill out a form on this page.
This is very important that I hear from as many people as possible so we can get you guys help all as a group, so please talk to people in the VOO and beach clean up and direct them to this page and have them fill out a form. People use Facebook, Forums and other hangout places people go to get as many of your friends in the VOO and Beach Clean up group together. United we stand and we can get these basters if we do it together. Now who want to help me get all these people sign up.
I am hearing that these cases will settle pretty quickly because of the very bad press it would bring BP. If you need more evidence please watch this video.

Living on the beach is wonderful especially in the winter times when its more deserted here and life is slower. We just had a small winter storm the last 3 days, its really over today but over the weekend there where high waves and plenty of beach erosion.
So today after the storm I go to the beach to see how things have changed and all I see is a line of black oil where the high tide line was coming up to. Plenty of dead fish and crabs are between the high tide line and the low tide line. The white sand beach has a dark brown oil line from the waves crashing onto the beach.
It looks like the job the 200+ BP workers have done now for a year on our beach took mother nature 1 day to completely change back to what we knew was coming.
Its almost like all the beach projects they have down here, where they put tons and tons of white sand on the beaches, it takes them a month to do, and millions of dollars., then a few small storms later and its all gone.
We have to know that this will go on for years, and not to be short sighted and take the money now, when we don’t know the extent of our losses. Remember these pictures before you settle for less then you should be getting with the GCCF, this will last for a long time and a one year window will not be enough to get you through this.

The news out Yesterday that a US investigation found evidence that both Halliburton, and BP knew that there where problems with the cement used at the oil well, has changed the odds and value of the protential winning from a BP claims lawsuit filed against these two defendants.
Positive news for a BP claims lawsuit
This findings will most likely mean that a claim of gross negligence against both Halliburton and BP is likely. This could mean billion of dollars in damages and it will for sure raise the level of Final Claims Payments that the oil spill fund will offer because they know the potential for a large BP claims win if people take their case to court.
Halliburton and BP Claims Lawsuit
Halliburton a multi billion dollar company with potential huge liability in the oil spill, is now fair game for all people with a BP Claim. We should start naming it Halliburton Claims I guess as it looks like they was as much at fault as BP in what happened on April 20 2010 with the gulf rig explosion and oil spill that followed. They have just tried to stay away from the problem and not dealt with it like BP has.
People going with an attorney and filing a BP claims lawsuit are loving this new development, as before one might have though that BP and Hallburton would mount a defence together, now what might happen is they will start blaming each other and this will only help the BP claims lawsuit and attorney’s fighting for the victims of the oil spill.
The largest oil spill in US history has cost BP until today 11.2 Billion dollars, and amount BP will surely sue Halliburton for as they have now been found liable for the oil spill together with BP. These court cases between BP and Halliburton should only help with BP wanting to pay off the people with a final claims payment.

Before the latest oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, people had very little idea of the extent of oil spill damages that these occurrences bring. As far as most people are concerned, oil spills are nothing more than minor accidents, usually lasting a few weeks or so, and are usually self-correcting. As illustrated by the Gulf of Mexico oil spill of 2010, this is not the case. In fact, oil spill damages have critical, long-lasting effects not only where the merchants are concerned, but also on the environment and all the inhabitants of the region where the spill occurred. Scientists classify oil spill damages into two major categories: socio-economic and ecological.
Ecological oil spill damages
Probably the most significant oil spill damages in terms of impact and consequences are the ecological damages. Oil, especially in huge quantities, poses several problems for aquatic life and those living near the shore. First, because oil spreads quickly over the surface of the water, it covers a wide expanse of the sea, thereby extending its area of damage. This means that living organisms will have a difficult time trying to outrun it or get away from the affected region. Second, when oil mixes with the water, it changes composition and turns into a sticky substance. This poisons marine creatures, destroys the insulating properties of feathers and fur of marine birds and mammals, ruins nesting areas of aquatic organisms, and even kills or disrupts algae (the primary producer in the sea). Lastly, since spilled oil takes a long time to eliminate, it threatens aquatic species for generations.
Socio-economic oil spill damages
Socio-economic damages are considered by most as the easier kind of oil spill damages to solve because the government can intervene to solve these problems. These include the loss of livelihood, especially for fishing communities, and the decline in eco-tourism opportunities. Since oil spills directly threaten and reduce marine harvest, fishermen will definitely get less yields from the sea during spills. This is a serious condition, especially for those who rely on the catch for food and for business. At the same time, this will also deter visitors from going to beaches close to the spill. Not only will these places look unattractive, but they will also pose some serious health threats.
