“BP has opened 25 claims offices across the gulf and sent $46 million in checks so far to some 17,500 Gulf Coast residents for their lost income. Another 17,500 claims have not been paid because of problems with claimant documentation. Satisfaction is not included according to the New York Times article, BP Pays Out Claims, but Satisfaction Is Not Included, which might be why The Lavis Law Firm – Personal Injury & Accident Attorney has launched BP Oil Spill Law Blog.
