LEADING THE FIGHT AGAINST BP
The BP Oil Spill litigation remains one of the largest and most complex cases ever tried in the United States. Our firm was trusted with a leadership role in this historic fight to hold BP accountable for its gross negligence, which claimed eleven lives and devastated countless others. HKGC partner Soren Gisleson helped guide the litigation from the beginning, taking on critical responsibilities that shaped the outcome—ranging from depositions and expert preparation to drafting key pleadings and advancing settlement efforts.
WHY FILE A PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUIT?
When an injury victim files a lawsuit, they are given the opportunity to recover monetary compensation for losses they incurred because of the negligence of another individual or company. While filing a lawsuit may not be your first priority after a serious accident, an experienced personal injury attorney can help you determine the totality of your current and future losses and file a claim seeking that amount from the party responsible for your injury.
In a personal injury lawsuit, an attorney may seek monetary compensation for the following:
- Past and Future Medical Expenses
- Lost Wages
- Loss of Earning capacity
- Physical and Mental Pain and Suffering
- Loss of Enjoyment of Life
- Scarring and Disfigurement
- Permanent Disability
If a wrongful death occurred, a personal injury attorney may seek compensation for burial expenses, loss of support, loss of household services, and mental pain and suffering.
Monetary damages are designed to restore the personal injury victim financially, physically, and emotionally. While a lawsuit cannot cure an injury or bring back a lost loved one, it can relieve some of the financial strains imposed upon a family after a serious accident that results in injury or death.
