Representing Alabama's Interests in The Aftermath of the BP Oil Spill
The BP Oil Spill was the largest accidental oil spill in history. Unfortunately, the spill occurred in our backyard, spoiling the natural resources that our attorneys along with the rest of the state cherish. Cunningham Bounds devoted its time, energy, and resources to holding BP responsible for its actions and obtaining compensation for the victims of the spill.
Our firm served as class counsel representing the tens of thousands of injured individuals and businesses in the Gulf region. Bobo Cunningham served on the trial team that investigated and proved BP’s gross negligence in the operation of the Deepwater Horizon well.
Cunningham Bounds continues to represent injured parties whose claims will go to trial in the future, as well as individuals and businesses in the claims settlement process. If you believe you have suffered property damage, economic harm, or loss of income as a result of the BP oil spill, please speak with one of our lawyers who uniquely specializes in this area of the law.
