Filing Gulf Coast claims?
The Gulf Coast Claim Facility or the GCCF is the organisation that is dealing with the payment of all those that have are waiting for compensation for their Gulf Coast claims. If you are a taxi driver that has filed Gulf Coast claims then you will not be disappointed with the amount of money that you will receive from the Gulf Coast Claims Facility.
Taxi drivers are receiving a good amount of money for their Gulf Coast claims. In fact, these people are being paid between four and five times the amount of money that they have lost due to the Deepwater Horizon disaster. Taxi drivers that are living in coastal communities and also those that are living in Tampa are being paid very well for the losses that they suffered after the 2010 BP oil spill.
However, many people’s lives were wrecked by the BP oil spill. Their problems are multiplying. If you are filing Gulf Coast claims then you will need to think about how much money you will get and how quickly you will get it. The GCCF has not been very quick in providing compensation. This is really a ploy that it is using in order to force claimants to act out of desperation.
Those people that are not willing to wait and fight for adequate compensation are accepting quick payouts. These payouts range from five thousand dollars for personal compensation and twenty-five thousand dollars for business.
However, people that are not willing to accept this amount of compensation and who are prepared to wait will need to exercise all their patience to handle the GCCF’s delaying tactics. Worse still, they may even receive GCCF claims denied notices.
You should not allow GCCF to force you into accepting a lower payment. By hiring a lawyer you can take it to court and hope to get up to three to five times the compensation for losses suffered. This is a good option and far better than being forced to accept GCCF’s final settlement for your BP claim. Such a step would mean that you would only receive compensation for between one and two years of your losses.
Though it is going to take you longer to receive your compensation by going to court, in the end it may be a much better option than accepting a quick payout from the GCCF. Though the GCCF will pay you within 90 days the amount of money paid to you will be far lower than what you should get.
