Gulf Coast Claims Facility (GCCF)

GCCF has been designated as a responsible party for the current Gulf disaster under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 ("OPA"). As a result, GCCF must pay specific categories of damages caused by the spill including:

> Removal and cleanup costs > Property damage > Subsistence loss > Net lost profits/earning capacity

If your business has been or will be directly or indirectly affected by the BP oil spill, you should be contemplating a damage claim. You can file your claim yourself, through a suit filed by an attorney on your behalf, or by joining in one of a number of class action lawsuits being filed by various law firms.

We have reviewed the GCCF claims process and discussed the documentation requirements with representatives at the local GCCF claims office. The process can be very complicated and documentation requirements vary depending on the nature of the claim and type of business involved.

If you decide to pursue a damage claim, whichever path you choose, we stand ready to assist you and/or your attorney in filing a complete and accurate claim, thereby increasing the probability of a successful claim and timely payment.

It is our understanding from GCCF that the fees for our services will be added to your claim and paid by GCCF.
